# WLED vs Juky

The clearest difference is rating: WLED at 3.5 against Juky's 2.9. WLED also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Juky sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. WLED asks for nothing beyond the download.

WLED holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 2.9. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 12 and 17 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of WLED's written reviews are positive against 57% of Juky's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

WLED ships an update every 2 months, Juky every 7 months. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
