Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Sequence at 4.3 against CAD Smart Modeling's 3.5. Sequence also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 months). CAD Smart Modeling's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sequence sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per year and CAD Smart Modeling sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Sequence holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sequence has 65 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 0% and 0% positive.
Sequence ships an update every 10 days, CAD Smart Modeling every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
