# Light ＋ vs Best Flash Light

The clearest difference is rating: Best Flash Light at 4.7 against Light ＋'s 4.0. Best Flash Light also leads on ratings volume (46K vs 9) and review sentiment (80% vs 61%). Light ＋'s advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Light ＋ sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Best Flash Light sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Best Flash Light holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Best Flash Light has 46K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 61% of Light ＋'s written reviews are positive against 80% of Best Flash Light's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
