Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Night Light at 4.5 against Dark Night Browser's 3.7. Night Light also leads on ratings volume (1.5K vs 42). Dark Night Browser's advantage is review sentiment (57% vs 39%) and iOS requirement (9.3 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Dark Night Browser sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Night Light sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Night Light holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Night Light has 1.5K ratings behind it against 42, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Dark Night Browser's written reviews are positive against 39% of Night Light's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
