# KedaReader vs MMReader

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.

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.

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.

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