# Foundy vs Group Text

The clearest difference is rating: Group Text at 4.5 against Foundy's 3.3. Group Text also leads on ratings volume (232 vs 4) and review sentiment (67% vs 50%). Foundy's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Foundy sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Group Text sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Group Text holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Group Text has 232 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 50% of Foundy's written reviews are positive against 67% of Group Text's.

Foundy ships an update every 10 days, Group Text every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
