Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mr Autofire at 4.8 against OLDTV's 4.2. Mr Autofire also leads on ratings volume (28K vs 350) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). OLDTV's advantage is review sentiment (70% vs 58%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, 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
Both are free to download. OLDTV sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Mr Autofire sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Mr Autofire holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mr Autofire has 28K ratings behind it against 350, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of OLDTV's written reviews are positive against 58% of Mr Autofire's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
OLDTV ships an update every 2 weeks, Mr Autofire weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
