# Smart Transfer App vs Copy my data

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Smart Transfer App at 59% against Copy my data's 4%. Smart Transfer App also leads on ratings volume (310 vs 4). Copy my data's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Smart Transfer App sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Copy my data sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Copy my data holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Transfer App has 310 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Smart Transfer App's written reviews are positive against 4% of Copy my data's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Smart Transfer App ships an update monthly, Copy my data every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
