Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Readmoo 看書 at 4.8 against 掌閱iReader's 3.3. Readmoo 看書 also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). 掌閱iReader's advantage is iOS requirement (12.4 vs 16.0). On price, update cadence, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
