Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: 希望之聲 at 4.5 against PTT 好讀版's 1.0. 希望之聲 also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (67 vs 1). PTT 好讀版's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 53%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

希望之聲 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 希望之聲 has 67 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of PTT 好讀版's written reviews are positive against 53% of 希望之聲's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

PTT 好讀版 ships an update every 5 weeks, 希望之聲 every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
