# PlashLights vs LED Lamp

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PlashLights at none against LED Lamp's 2. PlashLights also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 50%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.4). LED Lamp's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 13 months) and rating (4.6 vs 4.2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LED Lamp sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. PlashLights asks for nothing beyond the download.

LED Lamp holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LED Lamp has 96 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of PlashLights's written reviews are positive against 50% of LED Lamp's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

PlashLights ships an update every 13 months, LED Lamp daily. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and September 14, 2026 respectively.
