# IPTV Streamer vs IPTV Smarters Pro

The clearest difference is rating: IPTV Streamer at 4.5 against IPTV Smarters Pro's 4.0. IPTV Streamer also leads on ratings volume (3.8K vs 2). IPTV Smarters Pro's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 4 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IPTV Streamer sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per year and IPTV Smarters Pro sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

IPTV Streamer holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IPTV Streamer has 3.8K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of IPTV Streamer's written reviews are positive against 67% of IPTV Smarters Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

IPTV Streamer ships an update every 4 weeks, IPTV Smarters Pro every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
