# Max Kidruk vs UnderBooks

The clearest difference is review sentiment: UnderBooks at 76% against Max Kidruk's 40%. UnderBooks also leads on ratings volume (19 vs 2). Max Kidruk's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. UnderBooks sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Max Kidruk asks for nothing beyond the download.

Max Kidruk holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UnderBooks has 19 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Max Kidruk's written reviews are positive against 76% of UnderBooks's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Max Kidruk ships an update every 4 days, UnderBooks monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
