There's a lot of nastiness on the internet today. What if you could make any text nicer? NiceWriter automatically adds compliments before nouns as you are typing. Compliments added by NiceWriter are highlighted in pink to distinguish them from your own text, and you can share the artificially-sweetened text as an image with the highlighting intact. You can remove or change any adjectives which don't fit in the context, to make sure the text is as perfect as the nouns mentioned in it. You can remove or change selected compliments using the contextual menu, or change the selected compliment(s) (if there are any) or all compliments at once using the button on the toolbar. NiceWriter also supports Siri Shortcuts, so you can get a random compliment whenever you want, or make anything Siri tells you that little bit nicer.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Manga Relay at none against NiceWriter's 1. Manga Relay also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 26 months). NiceWriter's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
