Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: ePub Pro at Free against TotalReader Pro's $6.99. ePub Pro also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and review sentiment (100% vs 70%). TotalReader Pro's advantage is ratings volume (220 vs 2) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 3 months). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
