Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: easySearch at 4.2 against FindText's 3.7. easySearch also leads on ratings volume (12 vs 3). FindText's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 68%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. easySearch sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and FindText sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
easySearch holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 12 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of easySearch's written reviews are positive against 100% of FindText's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
