# VSmaHome vs CloudPlus

The clearest difference is review sentiment: CloudPlus at 82% against VSmaHome's 20%. CloudPlus also leads on rating (4.5 vs 2.4) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VSmaHome sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and CloudPlus sells 32 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

CloudPlus holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CloudPlus has 1.4K ratings behind it against 114, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 20% of VSmaHome's written reviews are positive against 82% of CloudPlus's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
