# YI Home + vs Smrtiplx

The clearest difference is rating: YI Home + at 3.4 against Smrtiplx's 2.3. YI Home + also leads on ratings volume (156 vs 9). Smrtiplx's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. YI Home + sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Smrtiplx asks for nothing beyond the download.

YI Home + holds the better App Store score, 3.4 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: YI Home + has 156 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 6% of YI Home +'s written reviews are positive against 17% of Smrtiplx's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
