Verdict
LibriVox Audiobook and Audiobooks Libri both sit at 3.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 78% of Audiobooks Libri's written reviews are positive against 30% of LibriVox Audiobook's. Audiobooks Libri also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). LibriVox Audiobook's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, rating, ratings volume and update cadence 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. LibriVox Audiobook sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Audiobooks Libri asks for nothing beyond the download.
LibriVox Audiobook holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 22 and 13 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of LibriVox Audiobook's written reviews are positive against 78% of Audiobooks Libri's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
