Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Quick Draw at every 3 months against Symbol Collection's every 8 months. Quick Draw also leads on price ($0.99 vs $2.99) and chart position (#39 vs #197). Symbol Collection's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). On ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
