# Re vs Text Simulator

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Re at 100% against Text Simulator's 0%. Re also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). Text Simulator's advantage is ratings volume (29 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Re sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Text Simulator sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Re holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Text Simulator has 29 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Re's written reviews are positive against 0% of Text Simulator's.

Re ships an update weekly, Text Simulator every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
