Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RichTexture at none against Word Processor's 2. RichTexture also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 42%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.4). Word Processor's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.1) and ratings volume (902 vs 49). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Word Processor holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Word Processor has 902 ratings behind it against 49, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Word Processor's written reviews are positive against 50% of RichTexture's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
