# Kingstone vs Redeem TV

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Redeem TV at 96% against Kingstone's 25%. Redeem TV also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.0) and in-app purchases (none vs 10). Kingstone's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price, update cadence, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Kingstone sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Redeem TV asks for nothing beyond the download.

Redeem TV holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Redeem TV has 646 ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 25% of Kingstone's written reviews are positive against 96% of Redeem TV's.
