Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: LED Light Controller Remote + at 4.4 against Hyperion Remote's 3.6. LED Light Controller Remote + also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (3.4K vs 80). Hyperion Remote's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (59% vs 31%). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hyperion Remote sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.49 per month and LED Light Controller Remote + sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

LED Light Controller Remote + holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LED Light Controller Remote + has 3.4K ratings behind it against 80, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Hyperion Remote's written reviews are positive against 31% of LED Light Controller Remote +'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, LED Light Controller Remote + every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on July 22, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
