Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pepperbox TV at none against Nebula's 16. Pepperbox TV also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 54%). Nebula's advantage is ratings volume (14K vs 1K). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Nebula sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Pepperbox TV asks for nothing beyond the download.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Nebula against 4.7 for Pepperbox TV. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nebula has 14K ratings behind it against 1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 54% of Nebula's written reviews are positive against 80% of Pepperbox TV's.
Nebula ships an update fortnightly, Pepperbox TV every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
