Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: RainPoint at 1.1K against ClicSmart's 3. RainPoint also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). ClicSmart's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 29%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

RainPoint holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RainPoint has 1.1K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of RainPoint's written reviews are positive against 50% of ClicSmart's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

RainPoint ships an update every 3 months, ClicSmart every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and June 2, 2026 respectively.
