Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: EbookVoice at Free against ZeroBooks Reader's $9.99. EbookVoice also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). ZeroBooks Reader's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly) and chart position (#60 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
