Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Tex at 4.3 against Blue Baker's 2.4. Tex also leads on review sentiment (39% vs 21%) and ratings volume (288 vs 20). Blue Baker's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
