# Sentence vs TypeFlow

The clearest difference is rating: Sentence at 5.0 against TypeFlow's 4.0. Sentence also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 6 weeks). TypeFlow's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 60%) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sentence sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and TypeFlow sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sentence holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 8 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Sentence's written reviews are positive against 100% of TypeFlow's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Sentence ships an update every 8 days, TypeFlow every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
