# Streamos vs Portal

The clearest difference is price: Portal at Free against Streamos's $9.99. Portal also leads on ratings volume (51 vs 1) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Streamos's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.4). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Portal is free to download; Streamos costs $9.99 up front. Streamos sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Portal sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Streamos holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Portal has 51 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Streamos ships an update every 3 weeks, Portal weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
