Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Diode Dynamics at 2.9 against LEDShow's 2.4. Diode Dynamics also leads on ratings volume (56 vs 15). LEDShow's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 34 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Diode Dynamics holds the better App Store score, 2.9 against 2.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 56 and 15 respectively.
