Rogers Xfinity holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rogers Xfinity has 500 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of SmartCocoon's written reviews are positive against 7% of Rogers Xfinity's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SmartCocoon ships an update fortnightly, Rogers Xfinity every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on August 27, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
