Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Casting Networks at free with in-app purchases against FastCast's subscription. Casting Networks also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 3) and chart position (#103 vs unranked). FastCast's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 22%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support 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. Casting Networks sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $29.99 per month and FastCast sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
FastCast holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Casting Networks has 1.6K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 22% of Casting Networks's written reviews are positive against 50% of FastCast's.
Casting Networks ships an update fortnightly, FastCast every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
