Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Lila's World at 4.4 against Drawing Keyboard Simple's 3.0. Lila's World also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 11 months). Drawing Keyboard Simple's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 24) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lila's World holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lila's World has 16K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Drawing Keyboard Simple's written reviews are positive against 45% of Lila's World's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Drawing Keyboard Simple ships an update every 11 months, Lila's World every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
