ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ColorEasy1 Plus holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smartphone Connect has 21 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 19% of Smartphone Connect's written reviews are positive against 0% of ColorEasy1 Plus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Smartphone Connect ships an update every 4 months, ColorEasy1 Plus every 49 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
