# Lenticule vs Eclipse

The clearest difference is rating: Lenticule at 5.0 against Eclipse's 4.5. Lenticule also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). Eclipse's advantage is ratings volume (12 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lenticule sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Eclipse sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Lenticule holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Eclipse has 12 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Lenticule ships an update weekly, Eclipse fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
