# TT ePaper vs New Republic

The clearest difference is review sentiment: TT ePaper at 80% against New Republic's 36%. TT ePaper also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). New Republic's advantage is ratings volume (2.6K vs 7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TT ePaper sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $24.90 per month and New Republic sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

TT ePaper holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: New Republic has 2.6K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two.
