# Screen Cast vs Screen Mirroring

The clearest difference is rating: Screen Mirroring at 5.0 against Screen Cast's 3.3. Screen Mirroring also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). Screen Cast's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Screen Cast sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Screen Mirroring sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Screen Mirroring holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 1 respectively.

Screen Cast ships an update every 4 months, Screen Mirroring every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
