# Scanify vs Barcode

The clearest difference is rating: Barcode at 4.7 against Scanify's 2.5. Barcode also leads on review sentiment (43% vs 11%). Scanify's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Scanify sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Barcode sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Barcode holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 13 and 12 respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 11% of Scanify's written reviews are positive against 43% of Barcode's.
