# Printer App vs Air Printer

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Air Printer at 100% against Printer App's 33%. Air Printer also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.2) and ads (none vs shown). Printer App's advantage is ratings volume (38 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Printer App sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Air Printer sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Air Printer holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Printer App has 38 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
