Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: EZText at none against TextEditor's shown. EZText also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 10 months) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). TextEditor's advantage is ratings volume (2.9K vs 30) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 27.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for TextEditor against 4.2 for EZText. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TextEditor has 2.9K ratings behind it against 30, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 78% and 79% positive.
TextEditor ships an update every 10 months, EZText every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
