Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Scan Master at 5.0 against SnapScan's 4.0. Scan Master also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). SnapScan's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 67%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Scan Master holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 4 respectively.
