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.
Performance TRIAD holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chill Drills has 21 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Performance TRIAD's written reviews are positive against 67% of Chill Drills's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Performance TRIAD ships an update every 3 months, Chill Drills every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on August 13, 2026 and September 13, 2026 respectively.
