Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: No.9 at free against quadline's paid. No.9 also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 10 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). quadline's advantage is ratings volume (69 vs 12) and device support (5 vs 3). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

No.9 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: quadline has 69 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 95% of quadline's written reviews are positive against 93% of No.9's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

quadline ships an update every 10 months, No.9 every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
