Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Spiralflow at Free against Überdoodle's $1.99. Spiralflow also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 78%) and iOS requirement (9.2 vs 13.0). Überdoodle's advantage is rating (3.8 vs 3.3). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Spiralflow is free to download; Überdoodle costs $1.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Überdoodle holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 11 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Überdoodle's written reviews are positive against 100% of Spiralflow's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
