Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Par at 3.5 against LightElf's 3.0. Par also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 weeks). LightElf's advantage is review sentiment (15% vs 0%) and ratings volume (20 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Par holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LightElf has 20 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of LightElf's written reviews are positive against 0% of Par's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
LightElf ships an update every 3 weeks, Par every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
