ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Drum Solo Studio holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SUPER DRUM has 92 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of SUPER DRUM's written reviews are positive against 63% of Drum Solo Studio's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

SUPER DRUM ships an update every 2 weeks, Drum Solo Studio fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
