# YDReader vs 全本阅读

The clearest difference is review sentiment: YDReader at 87% against 全本阅读's 50%. YDReader also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). 全本阅读's advantage is iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. YDReader sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and 全本阅读 sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

YDReader ships an update fortnightly, 全本阅读 every 2 months. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
