Verdict

The call

Print n Share and Gmail both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 76% of Print n Share's written reviews are positive against 29% of Gmail's. Print n Share also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). Gmail's advantage is price (Free vs $6.99) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). On rating, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
