# Litres vs Книги онлайн

The clearest difference is monetization model: Litres at free with in-app purchases against Книги онлайн's subscription. Litres also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (2.8K vs 2). Книги онлайн's advantage is review sentiment (94% vs 63%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Litres sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $6.49 per month and Книги онлайн sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Книги онлайн holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Litres has 2.8K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 63% of Litres's written reviews are positive against 94% of Книги онлайн's.

Litres ships an update fortnightly, Книги онлайн every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
