Warline holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 9.1K and 25K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Foundation's written reviews are positive against 45% of Warline's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
