Lighting Cache helps you capture moments that are over before you can react. Instead of only taking a photo after you press the shutter, Lighting Cache continuously maintains a short rolling cache of recent camera frames. When lightning strikes or another fast event happens, simply tap Capture, scrub back through the previous few seconds, and save the exact frame you want. Perfect for lightning, storms, fast action, wildlife, and other unpredictable moments. KEY FEATURES • Rolling Frame Cache Continuously keeps the most recent camera frames ready so you can capture something that happened just before you pressed the button. • Frame-by-Frame Review Scrub through your cached frames and find the exact moment you want to save. • Adjustable Cache Duration Choose how many seconds of recent whatfootage Lighting Cache keeps available. • Adjustable Cache Frame Rate Balance smooth frame selection with performance by choosing the frame rate that works best for your device. • Photo Quality Controls Choose between multiple quality levels to balance image detail and performance. • Auto & Manual Focus Use automatic focusing for everyday shooting or switch to manual focus when photographing distant lightning, storms, or difficult low-light scenes. • Exposure Controls Darken or brighten the camera view to better handle bright lightning flashes and nighttime photography. • Multiple Camera Support Switch between available iPhone cameras supported by your device. • Tap to Focus Quickly focus on the part of the scene that matters. • Private and On-Device Your rolling camera cache stays on your device. Frames are temporary unless you choose to save a photo. CAPTURE THE MOMENT AFTER IT HAPPENS Lightning can appear and disappear in a fraction of a second. By the time you see it and press the shutter, the moment is usually gone. Lighting Cache changes that workflow. Keep the camera pointed at the scene and let the app continuously maintain a short history of recent frames. When something happens, press Capture and go back through the cache to find it. Whether you're watching a thunderstorm, waiting for wildlife, or trying to capture another unpredictable event, Lighting Cache gives you a second chance at the shot you almost missed.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lightning Cache at none against YTV Player Pro's 1. Lightning Cache also leads on ads (none vs shown). YTV Player Pro's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price there is nothing between them.
