# Whitepages vs Fonts Reference

The clearest difference is rating: Whitepages at 4.6 against Fonts Reference's 3.4. Whitepages also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (162K vs 8). Fonts Reference's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and review sentiment (40% vs 27%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Whitepages sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Fonts Reference asks for nothing beyond the download.

Whitepages holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Whitepages has 162K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of Whitepages's written reviews are positive against 40% of Fonts Reference's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Whitepages ships an update every 2 weeks, Fonts Reference every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
