Verdict

The call

Text Editor. and Terminal# both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 91% of Terminal#'s written reviews are positive against 26% of Text Editor.'s. Terminal# also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). Text Editor.'s advantage is monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and update cadence (daily vs every 5 months).
