# WriteIdeas vs Forms

The clearest difference is review sentiment: WriteIdeas at 100% against Forms's 0%. WriteIdeas also leads on monetization model (free vs subscription). Forms's advantage is rating (3.8 vs 3.0) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 29 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WriteIdeas sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Forms sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Forms holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Forms has 13 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of WriteIdeas's written reviews are positive against 0% of Forms's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

WriteIdeas ships an update every 29 months, Forms fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
