Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Readberry at Free against Memorize List's $0.99. Readberry also leads on ratings volume (84 vs 3). Memorize List's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (100% vs 67%). On rating, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Readberry holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Readberry has 84 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Memorize List's written reviews are positive against 67% of Readberry's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
