ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Offtop holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Offtop has 4.4K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Offtop's written reviews are positive against 100% of TypeBeat's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Offtop ships an update every 3 weeks, TypeBeat every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
