Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: My Pride at 3.7 against SmartDrive MX2+'s 3.1. My Pride also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 15 months). SmartDrive MX2+'s advantage is review sentiment (31% vs 0%) and ratings volume (15 vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
My Pride holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SmartDrive MX2+ has 15 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of SmartDrive MX2+'s written reviews are positive against 0% of My Pride's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SmartDrive MX2+ ships an update every 15 months, My Pride every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on July 26, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
