# 2Counter vs SmoothSwing

The clearest difference is rating: SmoothSwing at 4.8 against 2Counter's 3.8. SmoothSwing also leads on ratings volume (11K vs 4) and chart position (#170 vs unranked). 2Counter's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 2Counter sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and SmoothSwing sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

SmoothSwing holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SmoothSwing has 11K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of 2Counter's written reviews are positive against 49% of SmoothSwing's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

2Counter ships an update fortnightly, SmoothSwing monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 16, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
