Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: smartQ at none against Draft Paper's 1. smartQ also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4). Draft Paper's advantage is ratings volume (16K vs 65) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
