# XLife Pro vs Smart Printer

The clearest difference is rating: Smart Printer at 3.9 against XLife Pro's 2.6. Smart Printer also leads on ratings volume (634 vs 29) and review sentiment (39% vs 28%). XLife Pro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Smart Printer sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. XLife Pro asks for nothing beyond the download.

Smart Printer holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 2.6.
