Verdict

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Draft Circles holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 8 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Draftable's written reviews are positive against 75% of Draft Circles's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Draftable ships an update daily, Draft Circles weekly. Both last shipped on October 7, 2026.
