Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Inkling at 4.5 against Audiobooks King's 3.3. Inkling also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (2.4K vs 178). Audiobooks King's advantage is review sentiment (41% vs 19%) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Inkling holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Inkling has 2.4K ratings behind it against 178, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 19% of Inkling's written reviews are positive against 41% of Audiobooks King's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Inkling ships an update every 3 weeks, Audiobooks King every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
