Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Feedero at 5.0 against ReadKit's 4.4. ReadKit's advantage is ratings volume (124 vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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
Both are free to download. ReadKit sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Feedero sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Feedero holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ReadKit has 124 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
ReadKit ships an update every 2 weeks, Feedero every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
