Light offers a unique way to generate wallpapers that are full of surprises. · Swipe LEFT to change the patterns · Swipe RIGHT to go back to previous pattern · Swipe UP to change the colors · Swipe DOWN to go back to previous color With Light, you won't get two identical wallpapers. Just like there are no 2 identical leaves in the world. It's fun because it’s so diversified. In addition to unlimited easy-wallpaper-switching, here are some of the key features you could expect: - Filter the patterns from a rich library of patterns of your choice. - Apply the built-in or custom color palettes to the wallpaper. - Add text to the wallpaper and edit the text style (size, color, font, alignment, transparency). - Add post effects to the wallpaper (blur, saturation, hue). In addition, Light can be used as several of the most useful Widgets (clock, date, countdown, progress, quotes) on your precious Home Screen space. By clicking on the magic button "Surprise me", you can also change the look of the widget in a way that is really unique to the app. And just like the wallpaper, the result will be unique every time here as well. For the users above iOS14.3, you could use Shortcuts for generating the random wallpapers, then just say "Hey Siri, change wallpaper", bang, your screen will be changed automatically. You could even use Automation in Shortcuts App to change wallpapers every single day, that's easy! -- Apple Watch -- Features: - Tap on the Watch’s screen, generate a random wallpaper. then open your iPhone app to sync & save it. - 8 selected WATCH FACES, each contains multiple photos. - Supply a SELF MOTIVATION COMPLICATION for the Watch Faces.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Light Wallpaper at 4.4 against InPaper's 4.0. Light Wallpaper also leads on ratings volume (25 vs 1) and device support (5 vs 2). InPaper's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 52%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. InPaper sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per year and Light Wallpaper sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Light Wallpaper holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Light Wallpaper has 25 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of InPaper's written reviews are positive against 52% of Light Wallpaper's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
InPaper ships an update every 3 weeks, Light Wallpaper fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
