Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Smart Mirror | TV & Device at 4.2 against Projector Stream's 3.6. Smart Mirror | TV & Device also leads on ratings volume (25K vs 71) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Projector Stream's advantage is review sentiment (53% vs 11%) and monetization model (free vs subscription). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Smart Mirror | TV & Device sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Projector Stream sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $29.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Smart Mirror | TV & Device holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Mirror | TV & Device has 25K ratings behind it against 71, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 11% of Smart Mirror | TV & Device's written reviews are positive against 53% of Projector Stream's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Smart Mirror | TV & Device ships an update every 5 weeks, Projector Stream fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
