# Houself vs Screen Mirroring · Cast TV

The clearest difference is rating: Screen Mirroring · Cast TV at 3.1 against Houself's 2.0. Screen Mirroring · Cast TV also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (19 vs 1). Houself's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Screen Mirroring · Cast TV sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Houself asks for nothing beyond the download.

Screen Mirroring · Cast TV holds the better App Store score, 3.1 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Screen Mirroring · Cast TV has 19 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of Houself's written reviews are positive against 13% of Screen Mirroring · Cast TV's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Houself ships an update every 9 months, Screen Mirroring · Cast TV weekly. Both last shipped on November 8, 2026.
