# Smart Cleaner vs Cleanify

The clearest difference is ads: Cleanify at none against Smart Cleaner's shown. Cleanify also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 73%) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Smart Cleaner's advantage is ratings volume (3.4K vs 9) and update cadence (every 9 days vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Smart Cleaner sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Cleanify sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Cleanify holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Cleaner has 3.4K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 73% of Smart Cleaner's written reviews are positive against 100% of Cleanify's.

Smart Cleaner ships an update every 9 days, Cleanify monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
