Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Final Draft Go at Free against Untitled's $4.99. Final Draft Go also leads on rating (4.0 vs 3.8) and ratings volume (1.7K vs 142). Untitled's advantage is review sentiment (51% vs 10%) and in-app purchases (none vs 2). On update cadence, ads 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
Final Draft Go is free to download; Untitled costs $4.99 up front. Final Draft Go sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Untitled asks for nothing beyond the download.
Final Draft Go holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Final Draft Go has 1.7K ratings behind it against 142, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Untitled's written reviews are positive against 10% of Final Draft Go's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
