# Beli vs Nespresso Smart

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Beli at 49% against Nespresso Smart's 3%. Beli also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.4) and update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly). Nespresso Smart's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10). On price, ads, chart position and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Beli sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $5.79 per month. Nespresso Smart asks for nothing beyond the download.

Beli holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Beli has 18K ratings behind it against 694, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 49% of Beli's written reviews are positive against 3% of Nespresso Smart's.

Beli ships an update every 4 days, Nespresso Smart monthly. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
