Both are free to download. LED Light Controller Universal sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Casambi asks for nothing beyond the download.

LED Light Controller Universal holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LED Light Controller Universal has 9.7K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of Casambi's written reviews are positive against 20% of LED Light Controller Universal's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Casambi ships an update monthly, LED Light Controller Universal every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 4, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
