Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: AnyRead at every 8 days against 八哥点读's every 4 months. AnyRead also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). 八哥点读's advantage is iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
