Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Bison 1660 at 4.6 against MidcoTV's 1.7. Bison 1660 also leads on update cadence (every 5 months vs every 12 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). MidcoTV's advantage is ratings volume (72 vs 8). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Bison 1660 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 1.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MidcoTV has 72 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Bison 1660's written reviews are positive against 7% of MidcoTV's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Bison 1660 ships an update every 5 months, MidcoTV every 12 months. The most recent releases landed on September 13, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
