Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Type Faster! at none against Type Flash's 1. Type Faster! also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 74%) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Type Flash's advantage is update cadence (every 12 months vs every 57 months) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 23). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
