Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Paint Paper Studio at 63% against Sprite's 0%. Paint Paper Studio also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). Sprite's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 2.5) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Paint Paper Studio sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Sprite sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Sprite holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 6 and 12 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Paint Paper Studio's written reviews are positive against 0% of Sprite's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Paint Paper Studio ships an update every 3 months, Sprite fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
