# UrbanflixTV vs Vault Access

The clearest difference is rating: Vault Access at 4.7 against UrbanflixTV's 4.1. Vault Access also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and review sentiment (88% vs 62%). UrbanflixTV's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. UrbanflixTV sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Vault Access sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Vault Access holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UrbanflixTV has 589 ratings behind it against 47, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 62% of UrbanflixTV's written reviews are positive against 88% of Vault Access's.

UrbanflixTV ships an update every 5 weeks, Vault Access every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 13, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
