Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Greatwave TV at 5.0 against TitanTV's 2.8. Greatwave TV also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). TitanTV's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 34 months) and ratings volume (143 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
