Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Smart Printer at fortnightly against Printer's every 3 months. Smart Printer also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 84%). Printer's advantage is ratings volume (2.8K vs 25) and rating (4.5 vs 4.3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Printer sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Smart Printer sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Printer holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Printer has 2.8K ratings behind it against 25, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Printer's written reviews are positive against 100% of Smart Printer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Printer ships an update every 3 months, Smart Printer fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 10, 2026 respectively.
