Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: 博客來電子書 at 4.6 against BOOK WALKER (Chinese version)'s 3.9. 博客來電子書 also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (750 vs 36). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
博客來電子書 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 博客來電子書 has 750 ratings behind it against 36, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of BOOK WALKER (Chinese version)'s written reviews are positive against 10% of 博客來電子書's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BOOK WALKER (Chinese version) ships an update every 4 months, 博客來電子書 every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
