Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
TempPro holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TempPro has 606 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 6% of TempPro's written reviews are positive against 67% of @The Texans Lightshow's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TempPro ships an update every 3 weeks, @The Texans Lightshow every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
