Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: iMPlayer IPTV Player at 4.8 against IPTV Player's 3.7. iMPlayer IPTV Player also leads on ratings volume (2.6K vs 3). IPTV Player's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 61%) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IPTV Player sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per year and iMPlayer IPTV Player sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $24.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iMPlayer IPTV Player holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iMPlayer IPTV Player has 2.6K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of IPTV Player's written reviews are positive against 61% of iMPlayer IPTV Player's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

IPTV Player ships an update every 2 weeks, iMPlayer IPTV Player every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 4, 2026.
