# Text Workflow vs Re

The clearest difference is update cadence: Re at daily against Text Workflow's monthly. Re also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Text Workflow's advantage is ratings volume (173 vs 32). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Text Workflow sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Re sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Re holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Text Workflow has 173 ratings behind it against 32, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 95% of Text Workflow's written reviews are positive against 100% of Re's.

Text Workflow ships an update monthly, Re daily. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and August 14, 2026 respectively.
