# SMS 2Number vs DE云短信

The clearest difference is rating: SMS 2Number at 4.4 against DE云短信's 3.5. SMS 2Number also leads on ratings volume (145 vs 4). DE云短信's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 13) and ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SMS 2Number sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $5.49 per month. DE云短信 asks for nothing beyond the download.

SMS 2Number holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SMS 2Number has 145 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of SMS 2Number's written reviews are positive against 29% of DE云短信's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

SMS 2Number ships an update every 2 months, DE云短信 weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
