- No graphical interface not to respond to unexpected operation. - Seamless loop playing. - Pausing option by long press. This simple movie player is developed for showing movies continuously on iPhone / iPad as digital signage. This player doesn't have any user interfaces on display not to respond to visitor's unexpected operation. Usage is very simple. You just set your movies (.mov or .mp4) from iTunes File Sharing, and then relaunch this app. The movies will be played in ascending order of the file names. You can select the play mode (Aspect Fit or Aspect Fill), and optional long press pause mode for controlling pause and replay by exhibitors easily. You can change the modes from Settings in iOS.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Installation Player at none against SooPic's shown. Installation Player also leads on iOS requirement (11.1 vs 16.0). SooPic's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 10 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
