# eSign App vs Sign PDF

The clearest difference is monetization model: Sign PDF at freemium against eSign App's subscription. Sign PDF also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 85%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). eSign App's advantage is ratings volume (1.5K vs 1) and chart position (#83 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. eSign App sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Sign PDF sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sign PDF holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: eSign App has 1.5K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 85% of eSign App's written reviews are positive against 100% of Sign PDF's.

eSign App ships an update every 3 weeks, Sign PDF every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
