Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Web.TV at 53% against HomeWAV's 8%. Web.TV also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). HomeWAV's advantage is rating (3.8 vs 1.0) and ratings volume (11K vs 3). 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
HomeWAV holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HomeWAV has 11K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of Web.TV's written reviews are positive against 8% of HomeWAV's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Web.TV ships an update fortnightly, HomeWAV every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
