Verdict

The call

HOMYHUB and Lexus both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 85% of HOMYHUB's written reviews are positive against 46% of Lexus's. HOMYHUB also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Lexus's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (332K vs 3). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
