Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: DS18 LC at 2.0 against VOXX_LINK's 1.5. DS18 LC also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 8 months). VOXX_LINK's advantage is ratings volume (51 vs 5) and review sentiment (10% vs 0%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
DS18 LC holds the better App Store score, 2.0 against 1.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VOXX_LINK has 51 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of VOXX_LINK's written reviews are positive against 0% of DS18 LC's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
VOXX_LINK ships an update every 8 months, DS18 LC every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
