Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: BLACK+DECKER Smart at 4.4 against ZAFRO's 1.7. ZAFRO's advantage is update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 19 months) and ratings volume (64 vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
BLACK+DECKER Smart holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 1.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ZAFRO has 64 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of BLACK+DECKER Smart's written reviews are positive against 12% of ZAFRO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BLACK+DECKER Smart ships an update every 19 months, ZAFRO every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 13, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
