Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: TSUN Smart at 5.0 against SolaXCloud's 4.3. SolaXCloud's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (8 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

TSUN Smart holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SolaXCloud has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of SolaXCloud's written reviews are positive against 18% of TSUN Smart's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

SolaXCloud ships an update fortnightly, TSUN Smart every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
