# IPTV Streamer Max vs Conflux

IPTV Streamer Max and Conflux both sit at 4.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 74% of Conflux's written reviews are positive against 32% of IPTV Streamer Max's. Conflux also leads on ads (none vs shown). IPTV Streamer Max's advantage is ratings volume (423 vs 67). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
