Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Messenger for Web ++ at 4.4 against SmartCaptain's 3.7. Messenger for Web ++ also leads on ratings volume (22K vs 27) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). SmartCaptain's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SmartCaptain sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and Messenger for Web ++ sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Messenger for Web ++ holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Messenger for Web ++ has 22K ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of SmartCaptain's written reviews are positive against 45% of Messenger for Web ++'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

SmartCaptain ships an update every 9 days, Messenger for Web ++ fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
