Germany Easy navigation: Drag left, right, up and down for nearby pages. Use "Back" button for previously visited pages.

Miscellaneous: Some channels have a time at the top that is not the same as when viewed on a TV. This time reflects the time the page was changed. So you may think you read old news but it is the latest available on internet and the same as on TV. Please note: This is only a specialized web browser and relies on publications on the internet. This means that channels may disappear at any time. Requires OS 6.0 or later.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Autonomous Vehicle at Free against TextTV's $0.99. Autonomous Vehicle also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.0). TextTV's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 7 months) and chart position (#43 vs unranked). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
