# TVNZ+ vs GO+

The clearest difference is ads: GO+ at none against TVNZ+'s shown. GO+ also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (2.3 vs 2.0). TVNZ+'s advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

GO+ holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 2.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 50 and 166 respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 5% of TVNZ+'s written reviews are positive against 10% of GO+'s.

TVNZ+ ships an update fortnightly, GO+ every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
