Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: My SmartBike at 648 against e's 1. My SmartBike also leads on review sentiment (32% vs 17%) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 3 months). e's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

e holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My SmartBike has 648 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of My SmartBike's written reviews are positive against 17% of e's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

My SmartBike ships an update every 6 weeks, e every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
