Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Soma Table at 4.3 against BrideScan's 1.5. Soma Table also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (22 vs 4). BrideScan's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and review sentiment (55% vs 43%). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Soma Table holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 1.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Soma Table has 22 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of BrideScan's written reviews are positive against 43% of Soma Table's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BrideScan ships an update every 2 months, Soma Table every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 9, 2026 and September 15, 2026 respectively.
