Both are free to download. IPTV Smarters Player Expert sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and XP IPTV sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 3 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

XP IPTV holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IPTV Smarters Player Expert has 493 ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of IPTV Smarters Player Expert's written reviews are positive against 28% of XP IPTV's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

IPTV Smarters Player Expert ships an update every 3 days, XP IPTV every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
