# MMReader vs KOOBONE

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: KOOBONE at none against MMReader's 4. KOOBONE also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3). MMReader's advantage is ratings volume (27 vs 3) and review sentiment (94% vs 83%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MMReader sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. KOOBONE asks for nothing beyond the download.

KOOBONE holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MMReader has 27 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 94% of MMReader's written reviews are positive against 83% of KOOBONE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

MMReader ships an update every 2 weeks, KOOBONE fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
