Tinyview Comics holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tinyview Comics has 1.5K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of PanoPainter's written reviews are positive against 48% of Tinyview Comics's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

PanoPainter ships an update every 2 months, Tinyview Comics every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
