Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: ZigBeeDirect at 3.0 against Yoolax Home's 1.7. ZigBeeDirect also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 14.0). Yoolax Home's advantage is update cadence (every 5 months vs every 34 months) and review sentiment (21% vs 0%). 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.
ZigBeeDirect holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 1.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Yoolax Home has 61 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of Yoolax Home's written reviews are positive against 0% of ZigBeeDirect's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Yoolax Home ships an update every 5 months, ZigBeeDirect every 34 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
