Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
ALClient holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ALClient has 12 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of ALClient's written reviews are positive against 100% of CloudPlayPlus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
ALClient ships an update fortnightly, CloudPlayPlus every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
