Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: ReadNet at 100% against Noveltime's 50%. ReadNet also leads on ads (none vs shown). Noveltime's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 3.0) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 7 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Noveltime sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and ReadNet sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Noveltime holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Noveltime has 217 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Noveltime's written reviews are positive against 100% of ReadNet's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Noveltime ships an update every 5 weeks, ReadNet every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
