# Tattoo Studio Pro vs Linework app

The clearest difference is rating: Linework app at 3.8 against Tattoo Studio Pro's 3.4. Linework app also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 48%). Tattoo Studio Pro's advantage is ratings volume (88 vs 4) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tattoo Studio Pro sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $29.00 per month and Linework app sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $49.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Linework app holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tattoo Studio Pro has 88 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 48% of Tattoo Studio Pro's written reviews are positive against 67% of Linework app's.

Tattoo Studio Pro ships an update weekly, Linework app every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 15, 2026 respectively.
