Verdict

The call

Lightsaber flashlight's advantage is review sentiment (56% vs 33%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

bSafe holds the better App Store score, 3.4 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: bSafe has 208 ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of bSafe's written reviews are positive against 56% of Lightsaber flashlight's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

bSafe ships an update every 3 weeks, Lightsaber flashlight every 11 months. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
