Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: CineCircle at 100% against Croissant's 63%. CineCircle also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Croissant's advantage is ratings volume (200 vs 7) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Croissant sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. CineCircle asks for nothing beyond the download.
CineCircle holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Croissant has 200 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 63% of Croissant's written reviews are positive against 100% of CineCircle's.
Croissant ships an update fortnightly, CineCircle monthly. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
