# REFORMA vs El Nuevo Día

The clearest difference is rating: El Nuevo Día at 4.6 against REFORMA's 3.3. El Nuevo Día also leads on review sentiment (55% vs 16%) and ratings volume (44K vs 16). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. REFORMA sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and El Nuevo Día sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

El Nuevo Día holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: El Nuevo Día has 44K ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 16% of REFORMA's written reviews are positive against 55% of El Nuevo Día's.

REFORMA ships an update every 3 weeks, El Nuevo Día monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
