AF Aroma holds the better App Store score, 2.1 against 1.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: aromaSmart has 38 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 11% of aromaSmart's written reviews are positive against 0% of AF Aroma's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
aromaSmart ships an update every 6 weeks, AF Aroma every 9 months. Both last shipped on October 20, 2026.
