# AudioBooth vs KMReader

The clearest difference is update cadence: KMReader at weekly against AudioBooth's every 4 weeks. KMReader also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 88%). AudioBooth's advantage is ratings volume (726 vs 32) and chart position (#192 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AudioBooth sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and KMReader sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. 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 AudioBooth against 4.8 for KMReader. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AudioBooth has 726 ratings behind it against 32, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 88% of AudioBooth's written reviews are positive against 100% of KMReader's.

AudioBooth ships an update every 4 weeks, KMReader weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
