Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
QuietCool Smart Control holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QuietCool Smart Control has 15K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of GaltConnect's written reviews are positive against 39% of QuietCool Smart Control's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
GaltConnect ships an update every 3 months, QuietCool Smart Control every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
