# 大麦 vs 斗鱼直播

The clearest difference is rating: 斗鱼直播 at 3.6 against 大麦's 2.3. 大麦's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (443 vs 51). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 大麦 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and 斗鱼直播 sells 14 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

斗鱼直播 holds the better App Store score, 3.6 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 大麦 has 443 ratings behind it against 51, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 10% of 大麦's written reviews are positive against 18% of 斗鱼直播's.

大麦 ships an update every 2 weeks, 斗鱼直播 fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
