# LiveGlue vs Sketch Pro

The clearest difference is rating: Sketch Pro at 4.7 against LiveGlue's 4.0. Sketch Pro also leads on ratings volume (12K vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). LiveGlue's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sketch Pro sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. LiveGlue asks for nothing beyond the download.

Sketch Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sketch Pro has 12K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of LiveGlue's written reviews are positive against 81% of Sketch Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

LiveGlue ships an update every 2 months, Sketch Pro every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 15, 2026 respectively.
