Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Multibook at none against ForNovel's shown. Multibook also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months). ForNovel's advantage is iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
