「大哉乾元，萬物資始，乃統天。雲行雨施，品物流形，大明終始，六位時成，時乘六龍以御天。乾道變化，各正性命，保合大和，乃利貞。首出庶物，萬國咸寧。」〈彖傳〉 「天行健，君子以自強不息。」〈象傳〉 「天尊地卑，乾坤定矣。卑高以陳，貴賤位矣。動靜有常，剛柔斷矣。方以類聚，物以羣分，吉凶生矣。在天成象，在地成形，變化見矣。」〈繫辭傳〉 「天地定位，山澤通氣，雷風相薄，水火不相射。八卦相錯，數往者順，知來者逆。是故易逆數也。」〈說卦傳〉 「有天地，然后萬物生焉。盈天地之間者，唯萬物，故受之以屯；屯者盈也，屯者物之始生也。」〈序卦傳〉 「乾剛，坤柔，比樂師憂。臨觀之義，或與或求。屯見而不失其居，蒙雜而著。震，起也，艮，止也。損、益，盛衰之始也。」〈雜卦傳〉 「元者，善之長也；亨者，嘉之會也；利者，義之和也；貞者，事之幹也。君子體仁足以長人，嘉會足以合禮，利物足以和義，貞固足以幹事。君子行此四德者，故曰乾、元、亨、利、貞。」〈文言傳〉

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: TxtReader Pro at Free against Ovidius's $2.99. TxtReader Pro also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Ovidius's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
