# 暴风影音 vs 风行视频+

The clearest difference is rating: 风行视频+ at 4.2 against 暴风影音's 3.0. 风行视频+ also leads on ratings volume (6.2K vs 33). 暴风影音's advantage is iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 暴风影音 sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and 风行视频+ sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

风行视频+ holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 风行视频+ has 6.2K ratings behind it against 33, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 81% of 暴风影音's written reviews are positive against 89% of 风行视频+'s.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
