Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: flix at 5.0 against Net's 4.2. flix also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). Net's advantage is ratings volume (70 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.5). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
