# Korean Reading vs Wheny

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Wheny at none against Korean Reading's 10. Wheny also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 66%). Korean Reading's advantage is ratings volume (507 vs 1). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Korean Reading sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $16.99 per month. Wheny asks for nothing beyond the download.

Wheny holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Korean Reading has 507 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 66% of Korean Reading's written reviews are positive against 100% of Wheny's.
