Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: 3D Print Mastermind Pro at 100% against Thinger's 33%. 3D Print Mastermind Pro also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Thinger's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 3) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 10 days). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Thinger sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and 3D Print Mastermind Pro sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
3D Print Mastermind Pro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Thinger has 1.3K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 33% of Thinger's written reviews are positive against 100% of 3D Print Mastermind Pro's.
Thinger ships an update every 5 days, 3D Print Mastermind Pro every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
