Verdict

WriCo's advantage is rating (4.0 vs 2.9) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WriCo sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. FolderStory asks for nothing beyond the download.
WriCo holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 2.9. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 17 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of FolderStory's written reviews are positive against 42% of WriCo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
FolderStory ships an update every 2 months, WriCo every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
