# Readova vs 云书阁

The clearest difference is rating: Readova at 5.0 against 云书阁's 3.7. Readova also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). 云书阁's advantage is monetization model (free vs freemium) and review sentiment (79% vs 67%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Readova sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and 云书阁 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Readova holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Readova's written reviews are positive against 79% of 云书阁's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Readova ships an update every 9 days, 云书阁 every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
