Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pick at 76% against Lights's 0%. Pick also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). Lights's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.1). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Pick sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Lights sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lights holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 354 and 180 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Pick's written reviews are positive against 0% of Lights's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Pick ships an update monthly, Lights every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
