Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Nowruz at 100% against Televika's 40%. Nowruz also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.4) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). Televika's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (307 vs 9). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Televika sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Nowruz sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Nowruz holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Televika has 307 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 40% of Televika's written reviews are positive against 100% of Nowruz's.
Televika ships an update every 4 months, Nowruz every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on October 11, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
