# IPTV Time vs Smart Player

The clearest difference is ads: Smart Player at none against IPTV Time's shown. Smart Player also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). IPTV Time's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IPTV Time sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Smart Player sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Smart Player holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IPTV Time has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
