# SMART USEN vs 360 Reality Audio Live

The clearest difference is rating: 360 Reality Audio Live at 1.9 against SMART USEN's 1.0. 360 Reality Audio Live also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (97 vs 1). SMART USEN's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.1). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SMART USEN sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month and 360 Reality Audio Live sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

360 Reality Audio Live holds the better App Store score, 1.9 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 360 Reality Audio Live has 97 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 16% of SMART USEN's written reviews are positive against 11% of 360 Reality Audio Live's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

SMART USEN ships an update every 6 weeks, 360 Reality Audio Live every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
