# Line vs StencilPro

The clearest difference is rating: StencilPro at 4.6 against Line's 3.4. StencilPro also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (421 vs 8). Line's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Line sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and StencilPro sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

StencilPro holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: StencilPro has 421 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 33% of Line's written reviews are positive against 55% of StencilPro's.

Line ships an update every 4 months, StencilPro every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
