Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Palindrome at 100% against Typr's 55%. Typr's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Typr holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Typr has 71 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Typr's written reviews are positive against 100% of Palindrome's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Typr ships an update every 2 months, Palindrome every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
