Verdict
TextMagic and Telerivet both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Telerivet's written reviews are positive against 31% of TextMagic's. Telerivet also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.6). TextMagic's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (267 vs 6). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
