# Picasso App Screenshot Studio vs AppJournal

The clearest difference is review sentiment: AppJournal at 100% against Picasso App Screenshot Studio's 57%. Picasso App Screenshot Studio's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (47 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Picasso App Screenshot Studio sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and AppJournal sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Picasso App Screenshot Studio holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Picasso App Screenshot Studio has 47 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Picasso App Screenshot Studio's written reviews are positive against 100% of AppJournal's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Picasso App Screenshot Studio ships an update fortnightly, AppJournal every 4 weeks. Both last shipped on November 4, 2026.
