Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Carro Home at 4.4 against BN's 2.3. Carro Home also leads on ratings volume (597 vs 37). BN's advantage is review sentiment (37% vs 23%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). 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.
Carro Home holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Carro Home has 597 ratings behind it against 37, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 23% of Carro Home's written reviews are positive against 37% of BN's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Carro Home ships an update monthly, BN every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
