# HomeBooks vs Lamplit

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lamplit at none against HomeBooks's 2. Lamplit also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). HomeBooks's advantage is ratings volume (8 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.5 vs 18.2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HomeBooks sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Lamplit asks for nothing beyond the download.

Lamplit holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HomeBooks has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
