# Briefley vs ePub Reader

The clearest difference is rating: Briefley at 5.0 against ePub Reader's 3.0. Briefley also leads on ratings volume (6 vs 2). ePub Reader's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Briefley sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and ePub Reader sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Briefley holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 6 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Briefley's written reviews are positive against 100% of ePub Reader's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Briefley ships an update every 3 weeks, ePub Reader every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
