ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ActivePrint Encryption holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ActivePrint Encryption has 36 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of ActivePrint Encryption's written reviews are positive against 100% of EMV's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ActivePrint Encryption ships an update fortnightly, EMV every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and September 3, 2026 respectively.
