Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CandyBong at none against Idol Light Sticks's 1. CandyBong also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (25 vs 5). Idol Light Sticks's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 7 months) and rating (4.2 vs 3.8). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
