# Screen Mirroring vs Screen Mirroring・View Smart TV

The clearest difference is monetization model: Screen Mirroring at free with in-app purchases against Screen Mirroring・View Smart TV's subscription. Screen Mirroring also leads on ratings volume (53K vs 702) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). Screen Mirroring・View Smart TV's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and review sentiment (31% vs 12%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Screen Mirroring sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Screen Mirroring・View Smart TV sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Screen Mirroring holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Screen Mirroring has 53K ratings behind it against 702, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 12% of Screen Mirroring's written reviews are positive against 31% of Screen Mirroring・View Smart TV's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Screen Mirroring ships an update every 3 months, Screen Mirroring・View Smart TV weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
