supertype holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: supertype has 5.2K ratings behind it against 107, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of sugar, sugar's written reviews are positive against 74% of supertype's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
sugar, sugar ships an update every 10 months, supertype every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
