ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

小湃蒙太奇 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BoxPlayer has 61 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of BoxPlayer's written reviews are positive against 33% of 小湃蒙太奇's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

BoxPlayer ships an update every 3 weeks, 小湃蒙太奇 every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
