ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

LEDGlow Automotive Control holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LEDGlow Automotive Control has 739 ratings behind it against 81, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Hyperion Remote's written reviews are positive against 15% of LEDGlow Automotive Control's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Hyperion Remote ships an update every 6 weeks, LEDGlow Automotive Control every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
