# Nookd vs Booklore

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Booklore at none against Nookd's 3. Booklore also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). Nookd's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Nookd sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Booklore asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Nookd against 5.0 for Booklore. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nookd has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Nookd ships an update every 5 weeks, Booklore fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
