PressInk turns your photos into prints that could really be made with ink on paper. Not a filter: plates, ink, paper and the marks of a real press, rendered on your iPhone or iPad. PHOTO PRINT Overprint one to three inks with halftone or grain screens on papers from cream to kraft. Start from 14 presets or pick from 259 inks, including 250 traditional Japanese colours. Frame it, then export a print-ready PNG. ZINE Lay out a poster or a two-page spread from 11 templates: your photo, a headline, colour blocks and a print feel such as Riso, Xerox or letterpress. IMPRINT One image, one method, one ink. Rebuild your photo as grainprint, stipple, linepress, glyphs, cyanotype and seven more. RUBBING AND WOODBLOCK 19 printing traditions from 8 countries, each laid out as a full sheet with its inscription, seal and mount: • Rubbing: black-gold and cicada-wing rubbings, cinnabar rubbing, gyotaku, Korean takbon, English brass rubbing • Woodblock: Yangliuqing and Zhuxianzhen New Year prints, ukiyo-e, senjafuda, Đông Hồ, lubok, Épinal, cordel woodcut, wood engraving and more POSTAGE Design a stamp from your photo with eight templates, perforated edges, frames, lettering and postmarks. Choose a separate postmark colour and export a transparent PNG without extra outer padding. Classic issue is free; the other seven templates need PressInk Pro. Open Postage from the bottom menu. TRAVEL PLATES (BETA) Set a travel photo beside the plate it was printed from: hand-coloured print, cyanotype, postage stamp, ticket and more. In Settings. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Every photo is processed on your device. Nothing is uploaded, and there is no account. PRESSINK PRO Every studio has free options. In Postage, Classic issue is free; selecting and exporting the other seven templates requires PressInk Pro. Pro also unlocks the exports, inks and print-size options marked PRO in the other studios. One optional purchase, no subscription; Family Sharing supported. Languages: English, 简体中文, 日本語, 한국어. PressInk is a creative print simulation. It is not a calibrated separation tool for a specific commercial press.

Verdict
PressInk and Lumin彩集 are too close to call on the numbers: across 9 compared parameters — price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. PressInk sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Lumin彩集 sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for PressInk against 5.0 for Lumin彩集. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 1 respectively. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
