Lightspeed Pocket (S) holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lightspeed Pocket (S) has 6.5K ratings behind it against 34, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Lightspeed Pocket (S)'s written reviews are positive against 65% of My e's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Lightspeed Pocket (S) ships an update every 2 months, My e fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
