Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Lights sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Look Again! Lite asks for nothing beyond the download.
Lights holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lights has 130 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Look Again! Lite'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.
Look Again! Lite ships an update every 71 months, Lights every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
