# One Exterior Day vs Stratword

The clearest difference is review sentiment: One Exterior Day at 100% against Stratword's 47%. One Exterior Day also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). Stratword's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 2.7) and ratings volume (97 vs 3). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. One Exterior Day sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Stratword sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Stratword holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Stratword has 97 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of One Exterior Day's written reviews are positive against 47% of Stratword's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

One Exterior Day ships an update every 10 days, Stratword every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
