# SlowRead vs Page Bender

The clearest difference is ads: Page Bender at none against SlowRead's shown. SlowRead's advantage is chart position (#23 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SlowRead sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $8.39 per 7 days and Page Bender sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
