Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Flashlight™ (Lite) at none against Color Light's 3. Flashlight™ (Lite) also leads on ratings volume (2K vs 328). Color Light's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 10 months). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
