My Typewriter combines the look and feel of working on a vintage typewriter with the convenience of a modern day word processor. With My Typewriter you have a typewriter to-go right in the palm of your hand. From the Underwood-inspired keystrokes and bell to the randomized ink patterns, this app was designed with the authentic experience of the classic writing machine in mind. Anything you create on My Typewriter can be saved, printed, exported, and uploaded to any platform you would like. Furthermore, the page size of My Typewriter has been optimized for social media posting to give your work the highest aesthetic quality on what’s becoming the chosen platform for the modern day poet. Some advantages My Typewriter has over other typewriter apps are the ability to delete mistakes, a longer page to be better-suited for long-form works, a font randomizer, a selection of vintage fonts to choose from, and the ability to move the cursor around manually in order to play with poetic form or to function like a traditional word-processor. We hope the next wave of Kerouacs, Plaths, and Hemingways use My Typewriter to create their masterworks just as we hope anyone with the inkling to write finds true joy from this virtual typewriter. Writers write, so get to it! Developed by Winnona Partners, LLC https://winnonapartners.com

FROM THE DEVELOPER House Map is a passion project built by one person. Updates are frequent, and a feedback channel is coming soon. Thanks for being here. House Map is a home management app that helps you keep track of everything about your home. Document issues, snap photos, take notes, and save measurements — all organized by room, wall, and surface so you can find what you need when you need it. DOCUMENT YOUR HOME Take photos of issues, add notes about maintenance, and keep track of things you need to fix or follow up on. Everything is pinned to the exact spot in your home where it belongs. MEASUREMENTS ON THE GO Wall lengths and room dimensions are always in your pocket. Next time you're at the store wondering if that shelf will fit, just open the app and check. INTERACTIVE FLOOR PLANS See your home as a top-down floor plan with rooms, walls, and labels. Switch between Layout, Summary, and 3D views to find what you're looking for. QUICK ROOM SCANNING Walk through your home with your iPhone camera to capture rooms in seconds. The app detects walls, floors, and room boundaries automatically so you can get to the useful stuff — your notes and measurements. **note** The app requires an iPhone with LiDAR capability (iPhone 12 Pro or later) for scanning. CLOUD SYNC Your home data syncs so it's always backed up and accessible.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: House Map App at Free against My Typewriter's $1.99. My Typewriter's advantage is chart position (#195 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 17.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
