# Readle vs Flow

The clearest difference is rating: Readle at 4.7 against Flow's 1.0. Readle also leads on ratings volume (1.5K vs 1) and review sentiment (81% vs 67%). Flow's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Readle sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month and Flow sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Readle holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Readle has 1.5K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 81% of Readle's written reviews are positive against 67% of Flow's.

Readle ships an update every 3 weeks, Flow weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
