Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: PrinterShare Premium at 4.9 against Printer 2 Go's 1.0. PrinterShare Premium also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (47 vs 1). Printer 2 Go's advantage is review sentiment (81% vs 45%) and price ($4.99 vs $9.99). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

PrinterShare Premium holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PrinterShare Premium has 47 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of PrinterShare Premium's written reviews are positive against 81% of Printer 2 Go's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

PrinterShare Premium ships an update fortnightly, Printer 2 Go every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
