Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Smart Printer Print and Scan at free with in-app purchases against Printer App's subscription. Smart Printer Print and Scan also leads on review sentiment (83% vs 63%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). Printer App's advantage is ratings volume (14K vs 58) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Printer App sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $7.49 per month and Smart Printer Print and Scan sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Printer App holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Printer App has 14K ratings behind it against 58, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Printer App's written reviews are positive against 83% of Smart Printer Print and Scan's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Printer App ships an update every 3 weeks, Smart Printer Print and Scan fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
