# Witchly vs DreamReader

The clearest difference is rating: DreamReader at 5.0 against Witchly's 4.4. DreamReader also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.4). Witchly's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (10 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Witchly sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and DreamReader sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

DreamReader holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Witchly has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Witchly ships an update weekly, DreamReader every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
