Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: My BASE at 4.9 against My Luminus's 3.8. My BASE also leads on ratings volume (53 vs 10). My Luminus's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 14%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

My BASE holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My BASE has 53 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of My Luminus's written reviews are positive against 14% of My BASE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

My Luminus ships an update fortnightly, My BASE every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
