# SMSVerified vs TextVerified

The clearest difference is ads: SMSVerified at none against TextVerified's shown. SMSVerified also leads on rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (523 vs 79). TextVerified's advantage is review sentiment (45% vs 35%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SMSVerified sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and TextVerified sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

SMSVerified holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SMSVerified has 523 ratings behind it against 79, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 35% of SMSVerified's written reviews are positive against 45% of TextVerified's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
