Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Revo Scan at every 6 weeks against Probe Setup's every 5 months. Revo Scan also leads on ratings volume (37 vs 6). Probe Setup's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Revo Scan holds the better App Store score, 2.4 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Revo Scan has 37 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Probe Setup's written reviews are positive against 21% of Revo Scan's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Probe Setup ships an update every 5 months, Revo Scan every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 15, 2026 and September 1, 2026 respectively.
