# Selecta TV vs Adella

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Adella at 89% against Selecta TV's 17%. Adella also leads on rating (4.5 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (71 vs 6). Selecta TV's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Selecta TV sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Adella sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Adella holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Adella has 71 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 17% of Selecta TV's written reviews are positive against 89% of Adella's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
