Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Elgin Smart at 4.7 against JFL Home's 4.0. Elgin Smart also leads on ratings volume (44 vs 1).

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Elgin Smart holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Elgin Smart has 44 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 18% of Elgin Smart's written reviews are positive against 33% of JFL Home's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Elgin Smart ships an update every 12 months, JFL Home every 17 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
