# Reading light vs Reading Light

The clearest difference is monetization model: Reading Light at free against Reading light's free with in-app purchases. Reading light's advantage is ratings volume (71 vs 4) and device support. On price, rating, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Reading light sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Reading Light sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Reading light against 5.0 for Reading Light. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Reading light has 71 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
