Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PopNovel at 72% against Teller's 0%. PopNovel also leads on rating (4.5 vs 2.0) and ratings volume (140 vs 2). Teller's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Teller sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and PopNovel sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
