# 2Watch vs IPVideo

The clearest difference is review sentiment: 2Watch at 75% against IPVideo's 0%. 2Watch also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (6.1 vs 12.0). IPVideo's advantage is rating (2.3 vs 1.0) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

IPVideo holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 1.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of 2Watch's written reviews are positive against 0% of IPVideo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

2Watch ships an update fortnightly, IPVideo every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
