The clearest difference is ads: shake smart at none against Tribe's shown. shake smart also leads on chart position (#202 vs unranked). Tribe's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 14 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
