# IPTV Plus vs Smart Share

The clearest difference is rating: IPTV Plus at 4.6 against Smart Share's 2.8. IPTV Plus also leads on review sentiment (21% vs 0%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). Smart Share's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IPTV Plus sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Smart Share sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

IPTV Plus holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IPTV Plus has 204 ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 21% of IPTV Plus's written reviews are positive against 0% of Smart Share's.

IPTV Plus ships an update every 2 weeks, Smart Share monthly. Both last shipped on October 25, 2026.
