# Click vs SWIPTV

The clearest difference is rating: SWIPTV at 4.2 against Click's 3.4. SWIPTV also leads on review sentiment (72% vs 38%) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). Click's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 8) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SWIPTV sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Click asks for nothing beyond the download.

SWIPTV holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.4.
