# InstaPrints vs Dark Table

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: InstaPrints at none against Dark Table's 4. InstaPrints also leads on review sentiment (79% vs 57%) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks). Dark Table's advantage is ratings volume (95 vs 29). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dark Table sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. InstaPrints asks for nothing beyond the download.

Dark Table holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 29 and 95 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of InstaPrints's written reviews are positive against 57% of Dark Table's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

InstaPrints ships an update every 8 days, Dark Table every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
