Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Supersonics Plus at none against Reading Eggs's 4. Supersonics Plus also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 55%). Reading Eggs's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (7.4K vs 21). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Reading Eggs sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Supersonics Plus asks for nothing beyond the download.
Reading Eggs holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Reading Eggs has 7.4K ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Reading Eggs's written reviews are positive against 80% of Supersonics Plus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Reading Eggs ships an update every 4 weeks, Supersonics Plus every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
