Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: IPTV Player at 33% against IPTV's 2%. IPTV Player also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.3) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). IPTV's advantage is ratings volume (1.8K vs 42) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IPTV Player sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and IPTV sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
