# iQua vs BRILLIANT Lights

The clearest difference is rating: iQua at 4.7 against BRILLIANT Lights's 3.6. iQua also leads on ratings volume (1K vs 10). BRILLIANT Lights's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

iQua holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iQua has 1K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of iQua's written reviews are positive against 20% of BRILLIANT Lights's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

iQua ships an update every 6 weeks, BRILLIANT Lights every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
