# testo Smart vs KFC Connect

The clearest difference is rating: KFC Connect at 3.2 against testo Smart's 2.7. KFC Connect also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 5) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). testo Smart's advantage is ratings volume (167 vs 14). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. testo Smart sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. KFC Connect asks for nothing beyond the download.

KFC Connect holds the better App Store score, 3.2 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: testo Smart has 167 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 16% of testo Smart's written reviews are positive against 14% of KFC Connect's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

testo Smart ships an update every 2 months, KFC Connect fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
