Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
UMT Plus holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 1.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pharos Print has 227 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of UMT Plus's written reviews are positive against 8% of Pharos Print's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
UMT Plus ships an update every 11 days, Pharos Print every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
