# eComics vs Bang

The clearest difference is rating: Bang at 4.7 against eComics's 4.3. Bang also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (74 vs 8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. eComics sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Bang sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bang holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bang has 74 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 50% of eComics's written reviews are positive against 61% of Bang's.

eComics ships an update every 3 months, Bang every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
