Verdict
The clearest difference is price: IPTV Player at Free against Smart IPTV's $19.99. IPTV Player also leads on rating (4.3 vs 1.0) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 17 months). Smart IPTV's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
