# ElevenReader vs JungleReader

The clearest difference is review sentiment: JungleReader at 100% against ElevenReader's 58%. JungleReader also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 18) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). ElevenReader's advantage is ratings volume (11K vs 1) and chart position (#67 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ElevenReader sells 18 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. JungleReader asks for nothing beyond the download.

JungleReader holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ElevenReader has 11K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 58% of ElevenReader's written reviews are positive against 100% of JungleReader's.
