Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Screen Mirroring ® holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Screen Mirroring ® has 2.6K ratings behind it against 98, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of Fast Cast's written reviews are positive against 34% of Screen Mirroring ®'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Fast Cast ships an update every 2 months, Screen Mirroring ® every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
