# Streamie vs Scrypted

The clearest difference is rating: Scrypted at 5.0 against Streamie's 4.4. Scrypted also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 13). Streamie's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 33%) and ratings volume (133 vs 16). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Streamie sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Scrypted asks for nothing beyond the download.

Scrypted holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Streamie has 133 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Streamie's written reviews are positive against 33% of Scrypted's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
