# CloudPlayPlus vs ScanBox

The clearest difference is rating: ScanBox at 5.0 against CloudPlayPlus's 4.0. CloudPlayPlus's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (100% vs 89%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ScanBox sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. CloudPlayPlus asks for nothing beyond the download.

ScanBox holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of CloudPlayPlus's written reviews are positive against 89% of ScanBox's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

CloudPlayPlus ships an update every 3 weeks, ScanBox every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
