# Best IPTV vs Smart Player

The clearest difference is ads: Smart Player at none against Best IPTV's shown. Smart Player also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Best IPTV's advantage is ratings volume (4 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Best IPTV sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Smart Player sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Smart Player holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 1 respectively.
