Better light, without carrying extra gear. MaoYaMi Fill Light turns your iPhone screen into a portable light source for selfies, video recording, live streaming, video calls, product shots, and everyday creativity. Fill light works as soon as you open the app. Camera permission is requested only when you enable camera preview or use a camera role in a multi-device shoot. KEY FEATURES RICH LIGHT COLORS Choose from warm, natural, cool, skin-friendly, neon, and multicolor gradient presets to suit different environments. BRIGHTNESS AND CONTRAST Adjust light intensity and preview contrast based on your surroundings and shooting distance. SMART SCENES Quickly apply settings for selfies, live streaming, makeup, food, reading, product photography, meetings, night lighting, and more. CREATIVE LIGHT SHAPES Use full screen, rounded square, stars, heart, cat, bear, bunny, flower, ring, paw print, and moon shapes for portraits and creative shots. CAMERA PREVIEW AND CAPTURE Preview your shot while using the fill light. Adjust preview size, lens, zoom, and timer, with support for photo and video modes. MULTI-ANGLE SYNCHRONIZED SHOOTING Create a shooting group with nearby iPhones and use up to three of them as cameras simultaneously. View all camera previews in a grid, select one camera to adjust its lens, zoom, exposure, and focus, or set one countdown, photo count, and interval for every ready camera. Originals from each synchronized shoot return to the controller automatically and are grouped by shoot and source device. A single camera can still take instant photos or record video, while other devices can remain dedicated lights. RHYTHMIC LIGHT EFFECTS Explore breathing, color cycle, music-reactive, strobe, and candlelight effects for streaming, parties, and creative ambience. CUSTOM COLOR CARDS Choose your own colors, brightness, and gradient direction, then save combinations for quick access. HOME SCREEN WIDGETS Place favorite color cards and scenes on your Home Screen for faster access. MULTILINGUAL Available in Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, Japanese, and Korean. MaoYaMi Fill Light puts flexible lighting within easy reach.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Maoyami Light at none against Silenus's 10. Maoyami Light also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). Silenus's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
