# IMAX vs PsycheArt Tv

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PsycheArt Tv at 100% against IMAX's 35%. PsycheArt Tv also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.2) and ads (none vs shown). IMAX's advantage is price (Free vs $0.99) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). On in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

IMAX is free to download; PsycheArt Tv costs $0.99 up front. IMAX sells 19 one-off in-app purchases and PsycheArt Tv sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PsycheArt Tv holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IMAX has 34 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 35% of IMAX's written reviews are positive against 100% of PsycheArt Tv's.

IMAX ships an update monthly, PsycheArt Tv every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
