Play M3U links on your iphone or iPad. YTV Player is a simple M3U link player for iphone. With this app, you can play IPTV links and watch content anywhere. The app does not include any links, so you will have to add them manually. When opening the app, you will see a "+" symbol in the top right. By clicking on it, a window will open with three fields that you will have to fill in. In the first one, you can give the links whatever name you want. In the second, you enter the URL. The third one is optional and requires you to enter credentials if the URL you enter needs them. Among the URLs you can enter, you can open YouTube videos if you have the original app installed. After that, the link will become available in the main window of the app. Clicking on it will open the content player. If the data you have entered is correct, you will be able to view the content. Among the playback options that the app lets you choose are the aspect ratio, rotating the screen, sending the content to other devices via Chromecast, and so on.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: YTV Player Pro at 4.4 against G's 3.4. YTV Player Pro also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 30%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). G's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
