# STRIMIX vs MAX IPTV

The clearest difference is rating: MAX IPTV at 5.0 against STRIMIX's 4.3. MAX IPTV also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 64%) and ads (none vs shown). STRIMIX's advantage is monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. STRIMIX sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and MAX IPTV sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MAX IPTV holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: STRIMIX has 20 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 64% of STRIMIX's written reviews are positive against 100% of MAX IPTV's.

STRIMIX ships an update weekly, MAX IPTV every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 4, 2026 respectively.
