# Greenlite vs Sky Smart Home

The clearest difference is rating: Greenlite at 4.5 against Sky Smart Home's 4.0. Greenlite also leads on ratings volume (172 vs 2). Sky Smart Home's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 7 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Greenlite holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Greenlite has 172 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 11% of Greenlite's written reviews are positive against 13% of Sky Smart Home's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Greenlite ships an update every 7 months, Sky Smart Home monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
