Both are free to download. Light GO 13x sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Tygem Go Pro sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Light GO 13x holds the better App Store score, 3.2 against 2.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 70 and 23 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of Light GO 13x's written reviews are positive against 24% of Tygem Go Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
