# Baseus vs Linklite

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Linklite at 100% against Baseus's 25%. Linklite also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 22) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Baseus's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 20 months) and ratings volume (321 vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Baseus sells 14 one-off in-app purchases. Linklite asks for nothing beyond the download.

Baseus holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Baseus has 321 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Baseus's written reviews are positive against 100% of Linklite's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Baseus ships an update fortnightly, Linklite every 20 months. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
