Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Flash Access at none against QR Reader's shown. Flash Access also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). QR Reader's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
