Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: DoodleConnect at none against Quizkins's 10. DoodleConnect also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). Quizkins's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
