Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 巴士的報 Bastille Post at none against 東網's 2. 巴士的報 Bastille Post also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). 東網's advantage is rating (3.6 vs 3.3) and ratings volume (96 vs 6). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

東網 holds the better App Store score, 3.6 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 東網 has 96 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of 東網's written reviews are positive against 24% of 巴士的報 Bastille Post's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

東網 ships an update every 3 weeks, 巴士的報 Bastille Post every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
