# DC Books vs Matrubharti

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Matrubharti at 56% against DC Books's 11%. Matrubharti also leads on rating (4.7 vs 1.9) and ratings volume (444 vs 12). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DC Books sells 37 one-off in-app purchases and Matrubharti sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Matrubharti holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 1.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Matrubharti has 444 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two.
