# Sedona vs HTML Editor

Sedona and HTML Editor both sit at 3.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 67% of Sedona's written reviews are positive against 29% of HTML Editor's. Sedona also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 8 months) and ratings volume (36 vs 2). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sedona sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and HTML Editor sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 3.9 for Sedona against 4.0 for HTML Editor. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sedona has 36 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 67% of Sedona's written reviews are positive against 29% of HTML Editor's.

Sedona ships an update monthly, HTML Editor every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
