Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: KedaReader at 4.5 against MMReader's 4.3. KedaReader also leads on ratings volume (201 vs 27). MMReader's advantage is review sentiment (94% vs 85%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. KedaReader sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and MMReader sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

KedaReader holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: KedaReader has 201 ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of KedaReader's written reviews are positive against 94% of MMReader's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

KedaReader ships an update every 3 weeks, MMReader every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 7, 2026.
