# PrinterShare vs Air Printer App

The clearest difference is rating: PrinterShare at 4.9 against Air Printer App's 3.9. PrinterShare also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (43% vs 22%). Air Printer App's advantage is ratings volume (2.5K vs 309). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PrinterShare sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per year and Air Printer App sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 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 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Air Printer App has 2.5K ratings behind it against 309, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 43% of PrinterShare's written reviews are positive against 22% of Air Printer App's.

PrinterShare ships an update every 2 weeks, Air Printer App every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
