ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Word Cloud Generator holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Voice to Text has 11K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Voice to Text's written reviews are positive against 25% of Word Cloud Generator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
