# TV Guide Australia vs Unleashed.TV

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Unleashed.TV at 100% against TV Guide Australia's 44%. Unleashed.TV also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). TV Guide Australia's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 9 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TV Guide Australia sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Unleashed.TV sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Unleashed.TV holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TV Guide Australia has 43 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 44% of TV Guide Australia's written reviews are positive against 100% of Unleashed.TV's.

TV Guide Australia ships an update every 2 weeks, Unleashed.TV every 9 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
