Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Battle.net at 4.6 against Pocket Dragonest's 3.5. Battle.net also leads on ratings volume (36K vs 20) and chart position (#34 vs unranked). Pocket Dragonest's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 24%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Battle.net holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Battle.net has 36K ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 24% of Battle.net's written reviews are positive against 50% of Pocket Dragonest's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Battle.net ships an update every 4 weeks, Pocket Dragonest every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
