Both are free to download. TV Invasion! sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Tape Thrower asks for nothing beyond the download.
Tape Thrower holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tape Thrower has 36K ratings behind it against 836, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Tape Thrower's written reviews are positive against 72% of TV Invasion!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Tape Thrower ships an update every 9 days, TV Invasion! monthly. Both last shipped on November 10, 2026.
