# TesDisplay vs Car Cast

The clearest difference is rating: Car Cast at 3.2 against TesDisplay's 2.4. Car Cast also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months). TesDisplay's advantage is review sentiment (26% vs 14%). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TesDisplay sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Car Cast sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Car Cast holds the better App Store score, 3.2 against 2.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 48 and 98 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of TesDisplay's written reviews are positive against 14% of Car Cast's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

TesDisplay ships an update every 2 months, Car Cast every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
