Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WordPress at none against ScreenGrant's 2. WordPress also leads on ratings volume (22K vs 1). ScreenGrant's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads 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. ScreenGrant sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. WordPress asks for nothing beyond the download.
ScreenGrant holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WordPress has 22K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
WordPress ships an update every 3 weeks, ScreenGrant fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
