Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: SmartMe at free with in-app purchases against A Better Inspector's subscription. SmartMe also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (3.6K vs 18). A Better Inspector's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (75% vs 46%). On price, rating and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. A Better Inspector sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month and SmartMe sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
SmartMe holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SmartMe has 3.6K ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of A Better Inspector's written reviews are positive against 46% of SmartMe's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
A Better Inspector ships an update every 3 months, SmartMe every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
