Verdict
Radio Shadi and Televika both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 40% of Televika's written reviews are positive against 0% of Radio Shadi's. Televika also leads on update cadence (every 4 months vs every 35 months) and ratings volume (307 vs 8). Radio Shadi's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 8). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Televika sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Radio Shadi asks for nothing beyond the download.
Radio Shadi holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Televika has 307 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Radio Shadi's written reviews are positive against 40% of Televika's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Radio Shadi ships an update every 35 months, Televika every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
