Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Temp Mail at 4.7 against SMSPool's 3.3. Temp Mail also leads on ratings volume (2K vs 16). SMSPool's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 17 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Temp Mail sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and SMSPool sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
