The clearest difference is rating: Reading Light Glowow at 4.7 against Reading Lamp's 3.1. Reading Light Glowow also leads on ratings volume (752 vs 14). Reading Lamp's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (73% vs 60%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Reading Light Glowow sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Reading Lamp asks for nothing beyond the download.

Reading Light Glowow holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Reading Light Glowow has 752 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two.
