Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mobile Run at 75% against Text & Fly's 49%. Text & Fly's advantage is ratings volume (17K vs 835) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). 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. Mobile Run sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Text & Fly sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Text & Fly holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Text & Fly has 17K ratings behind it against 835, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Mobile Run's written reviews are positive against 49% of Text & Fly's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Mobile Run ships an update every 2 months, Text & Fly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
