Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Meowary at free with in-app purchases against Smart Home Controller App's subscription. Meowary also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (15 vs 17.0). Smart Home Controller App's advantage is ratings volume (3.7K vs 1) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Smart Home Controller App sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Meowary sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $8.90 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Meowary holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Home Controller App has 3.7K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Smart Home Controller App ships an update weekly, Meowary fortnightly. Both last shipped on November 12, 2026.
