# Wheelie Life vs Double drift

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Wheelie Life at 80% against Double drift's 50%. Wheelie Life also leads on chart position (#130 vs unranked). Double drift's advantage is ratings volume (55K vs 279) and rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Wheelie Life sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Double drift sells 17 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Double drift holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Double drift has 55K ratings behind it against 279, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Wheelie Life's written reviews are positive against 50% of Double drift's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Wheelie Life ships an update every 10 days, Double drift fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
