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. Collect by WeTransfer sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and ApplySmartly sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
ApplySmartly holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Collect by WeTransfer has 25K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
