# Planet Cinema vs GO

The clearest difference is review sentiment: GO at 100% against Planet Cinema's 22%. GO also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Planet Cinema's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Planet Cinema holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Planet Cinema has 121 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Planet Cinema's written reviews are positive against 100% of GO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Planet Cinema ships an update every 2 months, GO every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
