# 豆腐阅读 vs 寒武纪年

The clearest difference is rating: 豆腐阅读 at 4.7 against 寒武纪年's 3.0. 豆腐阅读 also leads on ratings volume (61 vs 1). 寒武纪年's advantage is review sentiment (86% vs 75%) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 豆腐阅读 sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and 寒武纪年 sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

豆腐阅读 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 豆腐阅读 has 61 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of 豆腐阅读's written reviews are positive against 86% of 寒武纪年's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

豆腐阅读 ships an update monthly, 寒武纪年 every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 14, 2026 respectively.
