Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Wildfrost at 66% against Crunchyroll's 33%. Wildfrost also leads on ratings volume (507 vs 8) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). Crunchyroll's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (4.4 vs 4.1). 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. Crunchyroll sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $13.99 per month and Wildfrost sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Crunchyroll holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wildfrost has 507 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Crunchyroll's written reviews are positive against 66% of Wildfrost's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Crunchyroll ships an update every 2 months, Wildfrost monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
