# روايات و كتب vs حكاوي

The clearest difference is rating: حكاوي at 4.5 against روايات و كتب's 3.9. روايات و كتب's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (199 vs 8). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. روايات و كتب sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and حكاوي sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
