Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: ArticleOne at 5.0 against Reeder.'s 4.3. ArticleOne also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). Reeder.'s advantage is ratings volume (879 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
