Verdict

The call

SVS and LIVINGPRINT both sit at 4.2 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of LIVINGPRINT's written reviews are positive against 68% of SVS's. LIVINGPRINT also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). SVS's advantage is ratings volume (100 vs 9). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
