# IPTVX vs GameBox

The clearest difference is rating: IPTVX at 4.4 against GameBox's 3.8. IPTVX also leads on review sentiment (45% vs 11%) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months). GameBox's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 16) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IPTVX sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. GameBox asks for nothing beyond the download.

IPTVX holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IPTVX has 3.1K ratings behind it against 546, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 45% of IPTVX's written reviews are positive against 11% of GameBox's.

IPTVX ships an update every 2 days, GameBox every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
