ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Fast Template holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rocket Typist has 24 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Fast Template's written reviews are positive against 73% of Rocket Typist's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency
