Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Reading light at 4.9 against Readlight's 4.7. Readlight's advantage is ratings volume (317 vs 56). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Readlight sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Reading light sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Reading light holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Readlight has 317 ratings behind it against 56, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
