Both are free to download. Twings sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. UTube Embed Player asks for nothing beyond the download.
Twings holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UTube Embed Player has 145 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Twings's written reviews are positive against 75% of UTube Embed Player's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Twings ships an update every 3 weeks, UTube Embed Player every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
