Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Super Remote Player at Free against XPTV's $5.99. XPTV's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.1) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 6 weeks). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Super Remote Player is free to download; XPTV costs $5.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
XPTV holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: XPTV has 281 ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Super Remote Player's written reviews are positive against 50% of XPTV's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Super Remote Player ships an update every 6 weeks, XPTV every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
