# TaleWave vs MoReader

The clearest difference is review sentiment: MoReader at 60% against TaleWave's 25%. MoReader also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.0 vs 3.8). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TaleWave sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $0.29 per 7 days and MoReader sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MoReader holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 83 and 303 respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 25% of TaleWave's written reviews are positive against 60% of MoReader's.
