# DrawPlan vs EdrawMax

DrawPlan and EdrawMax both sit at 3.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 64% of EdrawMax's written reviews are positive against 13% of DrawPlan's. EdrawMax also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). DrawPlan's advantage is ratings volume (5.3K vs 33) and update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DrawPlan sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and EdrawMax sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 3.5 for DrawPlan against 3.4 for EdrawMax. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DrawPlan has 5.3K ratings behind it against 33, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 13% of DrawPlan's written reviews are positive against 64% of EdrawMax's.

DrawPlan ships an update weekly, EdrawMax every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
