Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Smack at 5.0 against Smash Dots!'s 4.5. Smash Dots!'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (85% vs 50%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Smack holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smash Dots! has 160 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Smack's written reviews are positive against 85% of Smash Dots!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Smack ships an update every 39 months, Smash Dots! every 23 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
