Read full descriptionHide full description
We all have it. The one box full of old cables. Because we'll need one one day. At some point. And when the time comes, we're not sure whether we actually have the right cable for our requirements. In the box in the attic? Or in the box in the basement? Now there is an app which lists all your cables virtually. This app provides you with easy access to: + Cable type and cable length + Cable brand name + Cable picture + Notes to the cable + Cable location (if you have more than one box full of cables) This app also features a search function in which you specify one or both cable connectors and if you have such a cable in one of your cables boxes, the app will show you all details of this cable, and in which box you will find it. In the free version, you can save 1 box with up to 10 cables. If you need more boxes or more cables, you can remove this limit for a one-time purchase.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: One Smart at none against CableBox's 1. One Smart also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.5). CableBox's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 10 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
