# Art Visualizer vs Paint my Room

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Art Visualizer at 83% against Paint my Room's 25%. Art Visualizer also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 11) and ads (none vs shown). Paint my Room's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 3.0) and update cadence (every 11 days vs every 4 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Paint my Room sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Art Visualizer asks for nothing beyond the download.

Paint my Room holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Paint my Room has 674 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Art Visualizer's written reviews are positive against 25% of Paint my Room's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Art Visualizer ships an update every 4 months, Paint my Room every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on September 8, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
