Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: PrintDirect at 4.1 against Mobi Print's 3.5. PrintDirect also leads on review sentiment (63% vs 40%) and ratings volume (46 vs 6). Mobi Print's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
