# CANAL+ vs Wassa

The clearest difference is rating: CANAL+ at 3.8 against Wassa's 2.0. CANAL+ also leads on review sentiment (33% vs 0%) and ratings volume (516 vs 2). Wassa's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CANAL+ sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Wassa sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

CANAL+ holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CANAL+ has 516 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 33% of CANAL+'s written reviews are positive against 0% of Wassa's.

CANAL+ ships an update fortnightly, Wassa every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
