Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Allview + at none against PlayOn Cloud's 11. Allview + also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). PlayOn Cloud's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (1.9K vs 1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PlayOn Cloud sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Allview + asks for nothing beyond the download.
Allview + holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PlayOn Cloud has 1.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
PlayOn Cloud ships an update every 3 weeks, Allview + every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
