# Sponge Art vs Draw a Line Around

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Draw a Line Around at 100% against Sponge Art's 41%. Sponge Art's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (86K vs 5). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sponge Art sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days and Draw a Line Around sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sponge Art holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sponge Art has 86K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of Sponge Art's written reviews are positive against 100% of Draw a Line Around's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
