# Drakdoo vs Forex Smart Alert

The clearest difference is rating: Drakdoo at 4.6 against Forex Smart Alert's 2.0. Drakdoo also leads on ratings volume (85 vs 1). Forex Smart Alert's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks) and review sentiment (100% vs 88%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Drakdoo sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $8.49 per month and Forex Smart Alert sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Drakdoo holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Drakdoo has 85 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of Drakdoo's written reviews are positive against 100% of Forex Smart Alert's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Drakdoo ships an update every 3 weeks, Forex Smart Alert every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and August 19, 2026 respectively.
