# Print Now vs Smart Printer

The clearest difference is rating: Print Now at 5.0 against Smart Printer's 4.5. Smart Printer's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (107 vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Print Now sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $5.99 per 7 days and Smart Printer sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Print Now holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Printer has 107 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Print Now ships an update every 3 weeks, Smart Printer every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on August 17, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
