Half
Read full descriptionHide full description
Half-Page Label Printer lets you print on just half of a shipping label, so you can reuse the other half. Simply take a photo of what you want to print or select a PDF, crop it to fit, and print. Save labels, save paper, save money.
Croplet
Read full descriptionHide full description
Croplet turns shipping label PDFs into clean 4ร6-inch labels ready for thermal printing. Import an A4 label, including Vinted labels, crop it precisely, then export or print in seconds. Everything you need for shipping labels: โข Import PDFs from Files, the Share Sheet, or a secure HTTPS link (up to 25 MB). โข Preview the original page and the finished crop before exporting. โข Crop manually with scale, rotation, and position controls when you need full control. โข Use automatic OCR detection to identify supported carriers and label layouts, including Poste Italiane and Vinted Go, BRT, DPD, InPost, Mondial Relay, Hermes, UPS, USPS, DHL, and more. โข Handle multipage PDFs: process one page or send every page to Batch. Each page becomes a separate 4ร6-inch label. โข Batch processing with Croplet Pro: queue multiple PDFs, process them together, review results, and share or print the completed queue. โข Export batch results as separate files or combine them into one PDF. โข Save reusable presets with your crop, carrier, detection mode, privacy, output format, and DPI settings. Apply presets automatically when a matching carrier is detected. โข Choose PDF or PNG output and set the resolution for your thermal printer. โข Choose portrait or landscape output, with carrier-specific layouts for difficult label formats such as BRT and DHL Parcel Connect. โข Protect your data with sender-address masking, including carrier-specific privacy controls. Keep or show recipient names on supported labels. โข Share, save, and print directly from the output preview. Croplet keeps processing on your device after import. Manual cropping is available for everyone; automatic detection, batch processing, and reusable presets are part of Croplet Pro.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Half at none against Croplet's 3. Croplet's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
