# Infuse vs Liquid Player

The clearest difference is rating: Infuse at 4.7 against Liquid Player's 4.1. Infuse also leads on ratings volume (28K vs 67) and chart position (#187 vs unranked). Liquid Player's advantage is review sentiment (78% vs 60%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Infuse sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Liquid Player sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Infuse holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Infuse has 28K ratings behind it against 67, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Infuse's written reviews are positive against 78% of Liquid Player's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Infuse ships an update fortnightly, Liquid Player weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 1, 2026 respectively.
