Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: BarrelDrop Ohio at none against OnlyDrams's shown. BarrelDrop Ohio also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). OnlyDrams's advantage is ratings volume (11K vs 6) and review sentiment (65% vs 50%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. OnlyDrams sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and BarrelDrop Ohio sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
OnlyDrams holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OnlyDrams has 11K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 65% of OnlyDrams's written reviews are positive against 50% of BarrelDrop Ohio's.
OnlyDrams ships an update fortnightly, BarrelDrop Ohio monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
