# Tiny Cast vs Chromecast Video Cast

The clearest difference is rating: Tiny Cast at 4.3 against Chromecast Video Cast's 3.7. Tiny Cast also leads on ratings volume (72 vs 3) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). Chromecast Video Cast's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 69%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tiny Cast sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Chromecast Video Cast sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tiny Cast holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tiny Cast has 72 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Tiny Cast's written reviews are positive against 100% of Chromecast Video Cast's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Tiny Cast ships an update every 2 weeks, Chromecast Video Cast monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
