# QR Pro vs QR Code Toolbox+

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: QR Pro at none against QR Code Toolbox+'s 5. QR Pro also leads on review sentiment (72% vs 40%) and ratings volume (29K vs 1.5K). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. QR Code Toolbox+ sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. QR Pro asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for QR Pro against 4.6 for QR Code Toolbox+. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QR Pro has 29K ratings behind it against 1.5K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 72% of QR Pro's written reviews are positive against 40% of QR Code Toolbox+'s.

QR Pro ships an update weekly, QR Code Toolbox+ every 4 days. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
