Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: LED light controller LED lamp at 4.5 against Alpena LED's 2.4. LED light controller LED lamp also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (12K vs 211). Alpena LED's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 16) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Written reviews complicate that: 16% of Alpena LED's written reviews are positive against 14% of LED light controller LED lamp's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
