# Lucky Draw Tool vs Random Balls

The clearest difference is rating: Random Balls at 4.5 against Lucky Draw Tool's 4.0. Random Balls also leads on ratings volume (211 vs 5) and update cadence (every 11 days vs every 5 weeks). Lucky Draw Tool's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 11.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lucky Draw Tool sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Random Balls sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Random Balls holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Random Balls has 211 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Lucky Draw Tool's written reviews are positive against 79% of Random Balls's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Lucky Draw Tool ships an update every 5 weeks, Random Balls every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
