# The Program vs OneCable

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: OneCable at none against The Program's 10. OneCable also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). The Program's advantage is ratings volume (41K vs 4) and chart position (#44 vs unranked). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. The Program sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. OneCable asks for nothing beyond the download.

OneCable holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Program has 41K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 78% of The Program's written reviews are positive against 100% of OneCable's.

The Program ships an update weekly, OneCable every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
