Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Daily Express at 4.7 against The Telegraph e's 3.8. Daily Express also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 21). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Daily Express sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and The Telegraph e sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $15.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Daily Express holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Daily Express has 1.2K ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 30% of Daily Express's written reviews are positive against 15% of The Telegraph e's.
Daily Express ships an update every 3 weeks, The Telegraph e every 5 months. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
