# Send Anywhere vs ShareXpress

The clearest difference is rating: Send Anywhere at 4.7 against ShareXpress's 4.0. Send Anywhere also leads on ratings volume (55K vs 2) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). ShareXpress's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Send Anywhere sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and ShareXpress sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Send Anywhere holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Send Anywhere has 55K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Send Anywhere ships an update monthly, ShareXpress every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
