# Typing Fingers LT vs GreatTyping

The clearest difference is review sentiment: GreatTyping at 63% against Typing Fingers LT's 22%. GreatTyping also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Typing Fingers LT's advantage is rating (3.9 vs 3.6) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Typing Fingers LT sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and GreatTyping sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Typing Fingers LT holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Typing Fingers LT has 99 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Typing Fingers LT's written reviews are positive against 63% of GreatTyping's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Typing Fingers LT ships an update every 5 weeks, GreatTyping every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
