GamePanda keeps every game you own in one library. Link PlayStation, Xbox and Steam and your games arrive on their own: purchases, subscription titles, and the trophies and achievements you have already earned. Add discs, cartridges and anything else by hand, and they sit alongside the rest instead of being forgotten. ONE LIBRARY, EVERY PLATFORM Digital, physical and subscription titles together. Remasters, remakes and ports collapse under the game they belong to, so a collection reads like a collection instead of a list of duplicates. TROPHIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS THAT KEEP THEMSELVES CURRENT PlayStation trophies, Xbox achievements and Steam achievements in one place, refreshed in the background so progress is already there when you open the app. KNOW WHEN A GAME GETS CHEAPER Watch any game and GamePanda tells you when the price drops. That is the only time it will interrupt you. A BACKLOG YOU MIGHT ACTUALLY FINISH Tap to move a game from Backlog to Playing to Completed. Hold to park it. Challenges count what you finish across every console you own. DISCOVER WHAT TO PLAY NEXT Browse new releases, deals and what is worth playing on each platform. GAMEPANDA+ UNLOCKS MORE Unlimited collections instead of one. A game's whole price history instead of 30 days. A calendar of everything you are waiting for, and a notification the day one of them ships. Check any store region on any game, and change your own whenever you like. Link a second (or more) account(s) per platform. Install to your console and check its storage from your phone. See what your subscriptions gave away in past months. And choose exactly what counts as a deal, instead of just "on sale." And many more features to come!

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: Smoke at 5 against GamePanda's 1. Smoke also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
