Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Letter Printer at freemium against Ghost's subscription. Letter Printer also leads on device support (3 vs 1). Ghost's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (7.7K vs 24). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ghost sells 19 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Letter Printer sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
