Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: NavPlayer at every 2 weeks against فردوسی's every 5 months. NavPlayer also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 87%). فردوسی's advantage is ratings volume (446 vs 7) and iOS requirement (7 vs 13.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
فردوسی holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: فردوسی has 446 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of فردوسی's written reviews are positive against 100% of NavPlayer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
فردوسی ships an update every 5 months, NavPlayer every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
