# Zee 5 vs Tamil TV Network

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tamil TV Network at 100% against Zee 5's 15%. Tamil TV Network also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 22) and ads (none vs shown). Zee 5's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (24K vs 1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Zee 5 sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Tamil TV Network asks for nothing beyond the download.

Tamil TV Network holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Zee 5 has 24K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 15% of Zee 5's written reviews are positive against 100% of Tamil TV Network's.

Zee 5 ships an update every 5 days, Tamil TV Network every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
