Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: iSmart at 1.6 against 易班's 1.0. 易班's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 9) and review sentiment (29% vs 5%). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iSmart holds the better App Store score, 1.6 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 易班 has 171 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of 易班's written reviews are positive against 5% of iSmart's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

易班 ships an update every 2 months, iSmart every 4 months. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
