# Readability vs Content Comprehension

The clearest difference is monetization model: Content Comprehension at freemium against Readability's subscription. Content Comprehension also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.1). Readability's advantage is ratings volume (24K vs 1) and chart position (#168 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Readability sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month and Content Comprehension sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Content Comprehension holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Readability has 24K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
