Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Simpleplus at 4.6 against VenevisionPlay's 3.7. Simpleplus also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 45). VenevisionPlay's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 6 months) and review sentiment (44% vs 28%). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Simpleplus holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simpleplus has 1.2K ratings behind it against 45, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Simpleplus's written reviews are positive against 44% of VenevisionPlay's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Simpleplus ships an update every 6 months, VenevisionPlay every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 14, 2026 respectively.
