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. Vector & SVG Maker sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Adobe XD sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Adobe XD holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 11K and 11K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 49% of Vector & SVG Maker's written reviews are positive against 40% of Adobe XD's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Vector & SVG Maker ships an update every 2 months, Adobe XD every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
