Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Lux Light Meter Pro at 3.9 against Window Tint Meter's 3.1. Lux Light Meter Pro also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (5.2K vs 17). Window Tint Meter's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lux Light Meter Pro sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Window Tint Meter sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lux Light Meter Pro holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lux Light Meter Pro has 5.2K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of Lux Light Meter Pro's written reviews are positive against 29% of Window Tint Meter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Lux Light Meter Pro ships an update every 3 months, Window Tint Meter every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
