Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: My JE at 65% against Status Smart's 32%. My JE also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (11 vs 2). Status Smart's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Status Smart holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My JE has 11 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of Status Smart's written reviews are positive against 65% of My JE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Status Smart ships an update every 6 months, My JE every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
