The clearest difference is price: iMotion Pro at $5.99 against Procreate Dreams's $12.99. iMotion Pro also leads on rating (4.3 vs 3.9) and device support (3 vs 1). Procreate Dreams's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (537 vs 84). On ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

iMotion Pro costs $5.99 and Procreate Dreams $12.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

iMotion Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Procreate Dreams has 537 ratings behind it against 84, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of iMotion Pro's written reviews are positive against 41% of Procreate Dreams's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

iMotion Pro ships an update every 4 months, Procreate Dreams monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
