Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: The Daily Caller at 4.5 against Newser's 2.4. The Daily Caller also leads on ratings volume (5.1K vs 107). Newser's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases 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
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
The Daily Caller holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Daily Caller has 5.1K ratings behind it against 107, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of Newser's written reviews are positive against 17% of The Daily Caller's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Newser ships an update fortnightly, The Daily Caller monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
