# Pursuit+ vs PHYXTV

The clearest difference is rating: Pursuit+ at 4.6 against PHYXTV's 3.8. Pursuit+ also leads on review sentiment (51% vs 33%) and ratings volume (278 vs 26). PHYXTV's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pursuit+ sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and PHYXTV sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Pursuit+ holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pursuit+ has 278 ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 51% of Pursuit+'s written reviews are positive against 33% of PHYXTV's.

Pursuit+ ships an update every 3 months, PHYXTV every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
