Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: DoodleConnect at 4.7 against 1's 4.2. DoodleConnect also leads on ratings volume (56 vs 5). 1's advantage is review sentiment (73% vs 56%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

DoodleConnect holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DoodleConnect has 56 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of DoodleConnect's written reviews are positive against 73% of 1's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

DoodleConnect ships an update every 2 months, 1 every 3 months. Both last shipped on September 21, 2026.
