# BeaconSET vs Beacon Scaner

The clearest difference is rating: BeaconSET at 3.0 against Beacon Scaner's 2.5. Beacon Scaner's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 33%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price, ratings volume, 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.

BeaconSET holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of BeaconSET's written reviews are positive against 50% of Beacon Scaner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
