Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PostPrime at 83% against 日本経済新聞 電子版's 34%. PostPrime also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). 日本経済新聞 電子版's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.3) and chart position (#107 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 日本経済新聞 電子版 sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $38.99 per month and PostPrime sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $0.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

日本経済新聞 電子版 holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 日本経済新聞 電子版 has 472 ratings behind it against 63, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 34% of 日本経済新聞 電子版's written reviews are positive against 83% of PostPrime's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
