Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: 大麦 at 2.3 against 播播TV's 1.0. 大麦 also leads on ratings volume (435 vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). 播播TV's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (9.2 vs 14.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. 大麦 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and 播播TV sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
大麦 holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 大麦 has 435 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
大麦 ships an update every 2 weeks, 播播TV every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
