Read full descriptionHide full description
Kant Generator produces text that vaguely resembles that of Immanuel Kant's Critique of Pure Reason, using a generative grammar originally developed by Mark Pilgrim for his version of this app. The text generated is grammatical, but usually nonsensical, and almost always amusing. It does make some dandy placeholder text if you're not a fan of Lorem Ipsum. It also generates Thank You notes, Excuses, Grumbles and Tweets that are similarly nonsensical, but just a tad more practical.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Kant Generator at none against Card2Phone's 1. Kant Generator also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 73%) and price ($0.99 vs $4.99). Card2Phone's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and chart position (#40 vs unranked). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
