Your child will be eager to learn as these fun and educational grade-level stories come to life with bright illustrations. IMPROVE CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS Our industry-first comprehension with Interactive Voice-based Questions & Answers (IVQA™) asks your child questions verbally about the story they just read to improve their critical thinking skills.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Readability at 4.6 against Master Reading Comprehension's 1.0. Readability also leads on ratings volume (24K vs 1) and chart position (#190 vs unranked). Master Reading Comprehension's advantage is monetization model (freemium vs subscription). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Readability sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month and Master Reading Comprehension sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Readability holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 1.0. 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.
