Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Reading Comprehension at 2.5 against Master Reading Comprehension's 1.0. Reading Comprehension also leads on ratings volume (10 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.2 vs 14.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Reading Comprehension sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Master Reading Comprehension sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Reading Comprehension holds the better App Store score, 2.5 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Reading Comprehension has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
