Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Typochondria at none against BattleText's shown. Typochondria also leads on update cadence (weekly vs monthly) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). BattleText's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and review sentiment (50% vs 34%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
