Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: DATEV SmartLogin at 80% against Post's 30%. DATEV SmartLogin also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Post's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Post holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 274 and 115 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of DATEV SmartLogin's written reviews are positive against 30% of Post's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
DATEV SmartLogin ships an update every 3 weeks, Post every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
