# HTML Editor vs Supanator

The clearest difference is rating: Supanator at 4.8 against HTML Editor's 4.2. Supanator also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and review sentiment (33% vs 22%). HTML Editor's advantage is ratings volume (819 vs 18). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HTML Editor sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Supanator sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Supanator holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HTML Editor has 819 ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 22% of HTML Editor's written reviews are positive against 33% of Supanator's.
