Mirror
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your pocket mirror ā with real light, 10x zoom and zero memory. Mirror turns the front camera into the mirror you always have with you: check your makeup, brows, lashes, contact lenses or teeth anywhere, with genuine face illumination and up to 10x magnification. WHY MIRROR ⢠Ring light that actually lights you: the screen goes to full brightness with a soft light ring ā choose warm, daylight or cool tone and set the intensity ⢠Zoom from 1x to 10x with a pinch ā see a single lash in detail ⢠Freeze the image with a double tap: hands free, nothing ever saved ⢠Flip between mirrored view and how others see you ⢠Brightness boost and a subtle brow guide grid A MIRROR THAT REMEMBERS NOTHING No photos. No account. No tracking. The camera image never leaves the screen and is never written anywhere. The only permission Mirror ever asks for is the camera. GREAT FOR ⢠Makeup checks and touch-ups on the go ⢠Inserting contact lenses and checking your eyes ⢠Brow shaping, lashes, skincare and teeth ⢠A quick look before the meeting starts Free, in 20 languages, updated every month. Open it once ā it will live on your home screen.
Ring Light

Lighted makeup mirror and selfie ring light for iPhone and iPad. Turn your screen into an adjustable light with an optional live mirror. Choose Ring for light around your reflection, or Panel to light your face with the whole screen. Pick a warm, natural or cool tone, set the intensity and make the ring thicker for more light. Perfect for makeup, shaving, touch-ups and looking your best on video calls. LIVE MIRROR ⢠Front-camera mirror, turned on only when you ask ⢠Pinch to zoom from 1x to 3x, double-tap to reset ⢠Full screen hides every control for a clean, luminous screen PHOTOS (NEW) ⢠In full screen, take a photo with the on-screen shutter ⢠Photos save to your own library only when you take one ⢠Front photos match your mirror, or turn mirroring off in Settings BRIGHT, BUT CAREFUL ⢠Optional maximum brightness while the app is open; your usual brightness returns when you leave ⢠Extra brightness (HDR) on supported displays, eased off automatically if the device gets hot PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no ads, no analytics, nothing uploaded. The live preview stays on your device, and the app can add photos to your library but never read it. Available in English, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean and Simplified Chinese. Ring Light Mirror uses your screen, not the hardware flash, and is not a calibrated studio light.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Mirror at 15.0 against Ring Light's 17.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
