Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Otherhalf AI at 4.4 against LightMode's 3.5. Otherhalf AI also leads on ratings volume (877 vs 13) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 weeks). LightMode's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 12) and review sentiment (62% vs 47%). On price, ads and device support 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. Otherhalf AI sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. LightMode asks for nothing beyond the download.
Otherhalf AI holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Otherhalf AI has 877 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of LightMode's written reviews are positive against 47% of Otherhalf AI's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
LightMode ships an update every 5 weeks, Otherhalf AI every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
