# 文心 vs 笔墨写作

The clearest difference is review sentiment: 笔墨写作 at 100% against 文心's 33%. 笔墨写作 also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.6). 文心's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (165 vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 文心 sells 19 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and 笔墨写作 sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

笔墨写作 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 文心 has 165 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 33% of 文心's written reviews are positive against 100% of 笔墨写作's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
