# المكتبة الصوتية vs ArcReader

The clearest difference is rating: ArcReader at 4.9 against المكتبة الصوتية's 4.0. ArcReader also leads on ratings volume (67 vs 1) and device support. المكتبة الصوتية's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.6). On price and review sentiment there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ArcReader sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. المكتبة الصوتية asks for nothing beyond the download.

ArcReader holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ArcReader has 67 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of المكتبة الصوتية's written reviews are positive against 96% of ArcReader's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
