Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Hearth.fish at 100% against Readora's 24%. Hearth.fish also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.0) and in-app purchases (none vs 4). Readora's advantage is ratings volume (868 vs 4) and chart position (#134 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Readora sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $24.99 per 7 days. Hearth.fish asks for nothing beyond the download.
Hearth.fish holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Readora has 868 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 24% of Readora's written reviews are positive against 100% of Hearth.fish's.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
