Verdict
The clearest difference is price: iEditor at Free against Text Calculator's $0.99. iEditor also leads on rating (4.1 vs 2.0) and ratings volume (189 vs 3). Text Calculator's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
