# GO vs StreamCot

The clearest difference is rating: StreamCot at 3.0 against GO's 2.3. StreamCot also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 2 months). GO's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. StreamCot sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. GO asks for nothing beyond the download.

StreamCot holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GO has 31 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 8% of GO's written reviews are positive against 0% of StreamCot's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

GO ships an update every 2 months, StreamCot every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on June 10, 2026 and June 11, 2026 respectively.
