# Chapter vs BookMosh

The clearest difference is ads: BookMosh at none against Chapter's shown. BookMosh also leads on update cadence (daily vs fortnightly) and ratings volume (10 vs 1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Chapter sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and BookMosh sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $39.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Chapter against 5.0 for BookMosh. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BookMosh has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Chapter ships an update fortnightly, BookMosh daily. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
