# Silver Stream vs Artiflix

The clearest difference is monetization model: Artiflix at free against Silver Stream's free with in-app purchases. Artiflix also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.6). Silver Stream's advantage is ratings volume (48 vs 2). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Silver Stream sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Artiflix sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Silver Stream against 4.5 for Artiflix. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Silver Stream has 48 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
