Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mobile HandyShare at 4.0 against Canon Multi's 2.3. Mobile HandyShare also leads on iOS requirement (12.1 vs 16.2). Canon Multi's advantage is review sentiment (41% vs 25%) and ratings volume (12 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Mobile HandyShare holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Canon Multi has 12 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Mobile HandyShare's written reviews are positive against 41% of Canon Multi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Mobile HandyShare ships an update every 11 months, Canon Multi every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on August 20, 2026 and September 5, 2026 respectively.
