Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Text Solitaire at Free against Full Deck Pro Solitaire's $4.99. Text Solitaire also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 8) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). Full Deck Pro Solitaire's advantage is ratings volume (5.8K vs 1) and chart position (#92 vs unranked). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
