Verdict

The call

Readmoo 看書 and 古燈文庫 both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 96% of 古燈文庫's written reviews are positive against 53% of Readmoo 看書's. 古燈文庫 also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). Readmoo 看書's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months). On price, rating, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
