Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: MagPaint at 100% against Write Chinese's 47%. MagPaint also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). Write Chinese's advantage is rating (3.5 vs 3.3) and ratings volume (38 vs 4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. MagPaint sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Write Chinese sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Write Chinese holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Write Chinese has 38 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of MagPaint's written reviews are positive against 47% of Write Chinese's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MagPaint ships an update every 5 months, Write Chinese every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
