# Artcast vs Screen Gallery

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Screen Gallery at 100% against Artcast's 39%. Screen Gallery also leads on rating (4.5 vs 3.9) and ads (none vs shown). Artcast's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Artcast sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Screen Gallery sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.95 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Screen Gallery holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Artcast has 29 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 39% of Artcast's written reviews are positive against 100% of Screen Gallery's.

Artcast ships an update every 2 weeks, Screen Gallery every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
