Verdict

The call

El Comercio Perú and MGP Ríos both sit at 4.2 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of MGP Ríos's written reviews are positive against 25% of El Comercio Perú's. MGP Ríos also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). El Comercio Perú's advantage is ratings volume (179 vs 1). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

El Comercio Perú holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: El Comercio Perú has 179 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of El Comercio Perú's written reviews are positive against 100% of MGP Ríos's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

El Comercio Perú ships an update every 5 weeks, MGP Ríos every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
