# Typelet vs Smart Home Manager

The clearest difference is rating: Smart Home Manager at 4.9 against Typelet's 4.0. Typelet's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Typelet sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Smart Home Manager sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Smart Home Manager holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Typelet's written reviews are positive against 80% of Smart Home Manager's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Typelet ships an update every 6 days, Smart Home Manager every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
