# Beem vs UPLIFT TV Network

The clearest difference is monetization model: UPLIFT TV Network at free with in-app purchases against Beem's subscription. UPLIFT TV Network also leads on ratings volume (215 vs 3). Beem's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 13 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Beem sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and UPLIFT TV Network sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

UPLIFT TV Network holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UPLIFT TV Network has 215 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Beem's written reviews are positive against 86% of UPLIFT TV Network's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Beem ships an update every 4 days, UPLIFT TV Network every 13 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
