Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: PGe at none against Dominion Post's shown. PGe also leads on rating (4.2 vs 3.8) and ratings volume (3.6K vs 15). Dominion Post's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dominion Post sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per month and PGe sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
PGe holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PGe has 3.6K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Dominion Post ships an update every 2 months, PGe monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
