# Set Light vs Q

The clearest difference is rating: Q at 5.0 against Set Light's 4.5. Q also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0).

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

Q holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Set Light has 12 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Set Light ships an update every 2 months, Q every 11 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
