Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SmallTalk Daily Activities at none against Cuespeak's 7. SmallTalk Daily Activities also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 83%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Cuespeak's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 9 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cuespeak sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. SmallTalk Daily Activities asks for nothing beyond the download.
Cuespeak holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cuespeak has 83 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of SmallTalk Daily Activities's written reviews are positive against 83% of Cuespeak's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SmallTalk Daily Activities ships an update every 9 months, Cuespeak every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
