# PLAN 3D vs ShapeScript Mobile

The clearest difference is rating: ShapeScript Mobile at 5.0 against PLAN 3D's 4.2. PLAN 3D's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and review sentiment (100% vs 67%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ShapeScript Mobile sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. PLAN 3D asks for nothing beyond the download.

ShapeScript Mobile holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 9 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of PLAN 3D's written reviews are positive against 67% of ShapeScript Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

PLAN 3D ships an update every 3 weeks, ShapeScript Mobile fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
