# Rapisode vs IPTV Player

The clearest difference is update cadence: IPTV Player at every 4 days against Rapisode's every 9 months. Rapisode's advantage is review sentiment (82% vs 57%) and iOS requirement (10.3 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Rapisode sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and IPTV Player sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Rapisode ships an update every 9 months, IPTV Player every 4 days. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
