# Sketchar vs Quick Draw

The clearest difference is price: Sketchar at Free against Quick Draw's $0.99. Sketchar also leads on ratings volume (9.8K vs 12) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Quick Draw's advantage is review sentiment (71% vs 33%) and in-app purchases (none vs 15). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Sketchar is free to download; Quick Draw costs $0.99 up front. Sketchar sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Quick Draw asks for nothing beyond the download.

Sketchar holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sketchar has 9.8K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Sketchar's written reviews are positive against 71% of Quick Draw's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Sketchar ships an update fortnightly, Quick Draw every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
