# Printer vs Printer Pro

The clearest difference is rating: Printer Pro at 5.0 against Printer's 4.5. Printer Pro also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 3 months). Printer's advantage is ratings volume (2.8K vs 4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Printer sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 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 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Printer has 2.8K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Printer ships an update every 3 months, Printer Pro daily. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
