# 3Draw Modeling vs DIY

The clearest difference is rating: DIY at 4.1 against 3Draw Modeling's 2.2. DIY also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 21%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). 3Draw Modeling's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 months). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 3Draw Modeling sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.39 per month and DIY sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $17.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

DIY holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 13 and 25 respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 21% of 3Draw Modeling's written reviews are positive against 50% of DIY's.

3Draw Modeling ships an update every 2 weeks, DIY every 5 months. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
