# Memorize Texts vs MemCards

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MemCards at none against Memorize Texts's 14. MemCards also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 80%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). Memorize Texts's advantage is ratings volume (2.6K vs 4) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Memorize Texts sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. MemCards asks for nothing beyond the download.

Memorize Texts holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Memorize Texts has 2.6K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Memorize Texts's written reviews are positive against 100% of MemCards's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
