Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lutron App at none against myDockLink's 4. Lutron App also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (6.9K vs 18). myDockLink's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 46%). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lutron App holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lutron App has 6.9K ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of Lutron App's written reviews are positive against 75% of myDockLink's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Lutron App ships an update every 8 days, myDockLink every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
