# TotalReader Pro vs ePub Pro

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.

ePub Pro is free to download; TotalReader Pro costs $6.99 up front. TotalReader Pro sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and ePub Pro sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ePub Pro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TotalReader Pro has 220 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 70% of TotalReader Pro's written reviews are positive against 100% of ePub Pro's.

TotalReader Pro ships an update every 4 weeks, ePub Pro every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
