# Aprox vs Simple Wake On Lan

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Simple Wake On Lan at 96% against Aprox's 43%. Simple Wake On Lan also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ratings volume (12 vs 2). Aprox's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 10 days) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Aprox sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Simple Wake On Lan asks for nothing beyond the download.

Aprox holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simple Wake On Lan has 12 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Aprox's written reviews are positive against 96% of Simple Wake On Lan's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Aprox ships an update every 2 days, Simple Wake On Lan every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
