Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: EVInsider at none against Smart Choices's 3. EVInsider also leads on ratings volume (334 vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 11 months). On price, rating, ads and device support 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. Smart Choices sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. EVInsider asks for nothing beyond the download.
Smart Choices holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: EVInsider has 334 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
EVInsider ships an update every 3 months, Smart Choices every 11 months. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
