ASD SMART holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CloudyBay has 83 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 18% of CloudyBay's written reviews are positive against 0% of ASD SMART's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CloudyBay ships an update every 7 months, ASD SMART every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
