# Resolutioner vs Code Editor

The clearest difference is price: Code Editor at Free against Resolutioner's $0.99. Code Editor also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 33 months) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). Resolutioner's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 3.2) and ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Code Editor is free to download; Resolutioner costs $0.99 up front. Resolutioner sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Code Editor sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Resolutioner holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Resolutioner has 946 ratings behind it against 43, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 80% of Resolutioner's written reviews are positive against 54% of Code Editor's.

Resolutioner ships an update every 33 months, Code Editor every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
