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. DrawnTogether sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Drawing Online asks for nothing beyond the download.
Drawing Online holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DrawnTogether has 13 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of DrawnTogether's written reviews are positive against 50% of Drawing Online's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
DrawnTogether ships an update every 5 months, Drawing Online every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
