Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Atlas Primer at 5.0 against Read&Write's 3.1. Atlas Primer also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). Read&Write's advantage is ratings volume (29 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
