Verdict

The call

Text Tool and ReText both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 79% of Text Tool's written reviews are positive against 18% of ReText's. ReText's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
