Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Bookmory at 16K against Reading Timer's 13. Bookmory also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks) and chart position (#123 vs unranked). Reading Timer's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bookmory sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.49 per month and Reading Timer sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Bookmory against 4.8 for Reading Timer. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bookmory has 16K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 93% of Bookmory's written reviews are positive against 88% of Reading Timer's.
Bookmory ships an update every 4 days, Reading Timer every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
