Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Smart Data holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Data has 763 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Smart Data's written reviews are positive against 33% of U.S. Bank Spend Management's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
