Verdict
The clearest difference is price: MRCOOL Connect at Free against HomeKeep's $3.99. MRCOOL Connect also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). HomeKeep's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
