# Font Installer vs StrokeInput

The clearest difference is rating: Font Installer at 4.4 against StrokeInput's 3.6. Font Installer also leads on ratings volume (2.1K vs 9). StrokeInput's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 17) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Font Installer sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. StrokeInput asks for nothing beyond the download.

Font Installer holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Font Installer has 2.1K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of Font Installer's written reviews are positive against 50% of StrokeInput's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Font Installer ships an update every 6 weeks, StrokeInput every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
