# Gridstreamr vs Axon Player

The clearest difference is rating: Axon Player at 5.0 against Gridstreamr's 4.1. Gridstreamr's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (7 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gridstreamr sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Axon Player sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Axon Player holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gridstreamr has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

Gridstreamr ships an update every 6 days, Axon Player every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
