TORK holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TORK has 225 ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of NX Lighting Controls's written reviews are positive against 22% of TORK's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
NX Lighting Controls ships an update every 2 months, TORK every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
