Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Text Extractor OCR at 5.0 against Text Extractor's 4.3. Text Extractor OCR also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs freemium). Text Extractor's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 17 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Text Extractor OCR holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Text Extractor has 31 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Text Extractor OCR's written reviews are positive against 71% of Text Extractor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Text Extractor OCR ships an update every 17 months, Text Extractor every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 11, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
