Glowdial

Glowdial is an idle game built around one gesture. Drag your thumb around the dial and let go. It coasts, ticking under your finger, and every turn makes Glow. Glow buys lights: a firefly, a candle, a lantern, a laser, a star. They keep the dial warm while you're gone. The dial has numbers, like a safe. Stop it on the right three in order and something opens. The story will tell you where to look. Players who find combinations get new finishes for their dial and permanent bonuses. Sometimes a number lights up. Land the dial on it exactly and it resonates. Sometimes a moth comes by. Catch it. When the dial burns out, you keep its filament and wind it around a new one, brighter than the last. The color climbs: Ember, Amber, Gold, White, Cyan, Violet, Ultraviolet, and one more. The music climbs with it. • One thumb. Spin, flick, tap. • Haptics on every detent. • Your lights work while you're away. • Eight hidden combinations, eight dial finishes, and seven color themes that each change the song. • An original soundtrack that opens up as you progress. • A story that arrives one line at a time. • No ads. No accounts. No tracking. Your save lives on your phone, and you can export it. Turn the dial.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Glowdial at none against World Button's shown. Glowdial also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 4 days). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
