Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Hyperweb at 4.6 against Dark Mode for Safari's 4.2. Hyperweb also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (1.5K vs 97). Dark Mode for Safari's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 64%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hyperweb holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hyperweb has 1.5K ratings behind it against 97, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Dark Mode for Safari's written reviews are positive against 64% of Hyperweb's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Dark Mode for Safari ships an update every 5 weeks, Hyperweb every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
