Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: ComicInk at every 5 days against ComicPad's every 6 weeks. ComicInk also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (30 vs 2). ComicPad's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ComicPad sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and ComicInk sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
ComicInk holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ComicInk has 30 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
ComicPad ships an update every 6 weeks, ComicInk every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
