# Printer App vs Printer Pro

The clearest difference is monetization model: Printer Pro at free with in-app purchases against Printer App's subscription. Printer Pro also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 3 weeks). Printer App's advantage is ratings volume (14K vs 4) and chart position (#23 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Printer App sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $7.49 per month and Printer Pro sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Printer Pro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Printer App has 14K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Printer App ships an update every 3 weeks, Printer Pro daily. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
