Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Imperative Light Control at none against Adorime's 19. Imperative Light Control also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Adorime's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
