The call

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lemon23 holds the better App Store score, 2.2 against 1.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 16 and 30 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Lemon23's written reviews are positive against 5% of SmartDawn's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Lemon23 ships an update every 6 months, SmartDawn every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on August 10, 2026 and August 26, 2026 respectively.
