Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Printer 3D at none against 3D Printing's shown. Printer 3D also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). 3D Printing's advantage is ratings volume (35 vs 2). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
