# Feedbin vs Clear Reader ™

The clearest difference is rating: Clear Reader ™ at 5.0 against Feedbin's 4.2. Clear Reader ™ also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 weeks) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Feedbin's advantage is ratings volume (78 vs 1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Feedbin sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Clear Reader ™ sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Clear Reader ™ holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Feedbin has 78 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
