Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Samy's Prints 2 Go at 4.3 against Capture One's 3.5. Samy's Prints 2 Go also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and iOS requirement (12 vs 17.0). Capture One's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Capture One sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $10.99 per month. Samy's Prints 2 Go asks for nothing beyond the download.
Samy's Prints 2 Go holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Capture One has 331 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Samy's Prints 2 Go's written reviews are positive against 18% of Capture One's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Samy's Prints 2 Go ships an update every 4 months, Capture One fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
