Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Any Text at none against Countdown's 2. Any Text also leads on ratings volume (11 vs 1). Countdown's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Countdown sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Any Text asks for nothing beyond the download.
Countdown holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Any Text has 11 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
