Aufera vs BookScape
Both put music under your reading. BookScape gives each chapter of the books in its library a soundscape. Aufera follows the emotion of every scene, in any book of yours, even on paper.
| Aufera | BookScape | |
|---|---|---|
| What the music follows | The emotion of each scene: it shifts inside a chapter as the story moves. | Each chapter, with a soundscape matched to its mood and setting. |
| Your reading pace | Plays at the speed you read. | With Plus, Auto-Advance learns your pace and moves to the next chapter. |
| Which books | Any book of yours (EPUB, PDF, TXT or a Kindle book without DRM), plus the catalogue. | Books from its library: 107 on its website, with more added each month by vote. |
| Reading on paper | Yes: add just the soundtrack and read your own copy. | Its website does not say. |
| Price | Free to download, catalogue included. The first book you bring is free; then packs of 1, 3 or 5 soundtracks for €1.49, €2.99 or €3.99. No subscription. | Free: 3 soundscapes a day. Plus: $3.99 a month or $39.99 a year, with a 7-day trial. |
| Phones | Android and iPhone. | iPhone and Android. |
Where BookScape goes further

- Plus includes offline listening.
Which one is for you
- If your book is in BookScape's library and a soundscape per chapter is enough, BookScape does that.
- If you want the music to change with each scene, with your own books or on paper, that is what Aufera is made for.
Try it with a book of yours.
