# Drafts vs Rank Things

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Drafts at 11K against Rank Things's 11. Drafts also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks) and device support (4 vs 2). Rank Things's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Drafts sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Rank Things sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Rank Things holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Drafts has 11K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Drafts ships an update every 4 days, Rank Things every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and August 29, 2026 respectively.
