# PrinterShare vs Printing App

The clearest difference is rating: PrinterShare at 4.9 against Printing App's 4.2. PrinterShare also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). Printing App's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 2 weeks) and review sentiment (67% vs 44%). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PrinterShare sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per year and Printing App sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.49 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PrinterShare holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 385 and 464 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of PrinterShare's written reviews are positive against 67% of Printing App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

PrinterShare ships an update every 2 weeks, Printing App daily. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
