ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Smart Printer & Scanner holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Air Printer Pro & Scan has 51 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Smart Air Printer Pro & Scan's written reviews are positive against 10% of Smart Printer & Scanner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Smart Air Printer Pro & Scan ships an update every 2 months, Smart Printer & Scanner every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
