Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Text at Free against StarOrder's $3.99. Text also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). StarOrder's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 1.4) and review sentiment (86% vs 75%). On ratings volume, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
