Read full description

Draw a little every day--each morning, izzit gives you one word. You have three tries to draw it well enough for the AI judge to certify. Free to download and your first shot is free; submitting drawings to the AI judge unlocks for a one-time $0.99 purchase. Every successful day mints a certified card: Gold (or Diamond!) on the first try, Silver on the second, Bronze on the third. Every level is a chance at a "shiny". Export any card as a PNG for group chats, stories, or the fridge. And when the AI confidently misidentifies your drawing, share the moment as a rubber-stamped "Certified Misidentification" card. Good for anyone who likes a small creative ritual. You don't need to be good. You just need three minutes.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Map at none against izzit's 4. Map also leads on ratings volume (403 vs 6) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). izzit's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 81%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
