Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Text App at 4.6 against InText's 4.0. Text App also leads on ratings volume (3.5K vs 4) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.2). InText's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 7) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
