ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Notepad holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 10 and 3 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Scrawler I's written reviews are positive against 54% of Notepad's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
