# iPrint vs Air Printer

The clearest difference is ratings volume: iPrint at 144 against Air Printer's 4. iPrint also leads on rating (4.3 vs 4.0) and device support (4 vs 2). Air Printer's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iPrint sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Air Printer sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

iPrint holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iPrint has 144 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of iPrint's written reviews are positive against 44% of Air Printer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

iPrint ships an update every 6 weeks, Air Printer every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
