Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Metron Comics at none against MangaPin's 2. MangaPin's advantage is ratings volume (6.2K vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.6). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MangaPin sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Metron Comics asks for nothing beyond the download.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for MangaPin against 5.0 for Metron Comics. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MangaPin has 6.2K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
MangaPin ships an update every 11 days, Metron Comics every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
