Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Grabie at none against Nailboo's shown. Grabie also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Nailboo's advantage is ratings volume (380 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Nailboo against 5.0 for Grabie. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nailboo has 380 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 95% of Nailboo's written reviews are positive against 100% of Grabie's.
Nailboo ships an update every 4 weeks, Grabie fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
