Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MAHASHRI at none against 微信读书's 10. MAHASHRI also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). 微信读书's advantage is ratings volume (28K vs 1) and chart position (#29 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
