Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Trucksoft at 100% against Smart Elds's 56%. Trucksoft also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.6). Smart Elds's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (55 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Smart Elds holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Elds has 55 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Trucksoft's written reviews are positive against 56% of Smart Elds's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Trucksoft ships an update every 2 months, Smart Elds every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 16, 2026 and September 13, 2026 respectively.
