# 追书神器 vs 书耽

The clearest difference is ads: 书耽 at none against 追书神器's shown. 书耽 also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). 追书神器's advantage is ratings volume (1.4K vs 89). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 追书神器 sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and 书耽 sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

书耽 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 追书神器 has 1.4K ratings behind it against 89, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of 追书神器's written reviews are positive against 76% of 书耽's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

追书神器 ships an update every 2 weeks, 书耽 fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
