Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: OttPlayertv at none against CGM TV's 10. OttPlayertv also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). CGM TV's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
