# Age ID vs ID Scanner Professional

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Age ID at 67% against ID Scanner Professional's 20%. Age ID also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 7) and ads (none vs shown). ID Scanner Professional's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 2.5) and ratings volume (3.4K vs 92). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ID Scanner Professional sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Age ID asks for nothing beyond the download.

ID Scanner Professional holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ID Scanner Professional has 3.4K ratings behind it against 92, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Age ID's written reviews are positive against 20% of ID Scanner Professional's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
