Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Ducknowl at 100% against Loom's 42%. Ducknowl also leads on monetization model (free vs freemium) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.5). Loom's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (19K vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support 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.
Loom holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Loom has 19K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Loom's written reviews are positive against 100% of Ducknowl's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Loom ships an update weekly, Ducknowl monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
