Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Miracast at 4.5 against tranScreen's 2.1. Miracast also leads on ratings volume (2.9K vs 64) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). tranScreen's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Miracast holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Miracast has 2.9K ratings behind it against 64, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of tranScreen's written reviews are positive against 11% of Miracast's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

tranScreen ships an update every 6 weeks, Miracast every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
