# CH3 Plus vs House Cinema

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: House Cinema at none against CH3 Plus's 10. House Cinema also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). CH3 Plus's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CH3 Plus sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. House Cinema asks for nothing beyond the download.

CH3 Plus ships an update fortnightly, House Cinema every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
