Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: QR Code at none against Barcode & QR Scanner's shown. QR Code also leads on review sentiment (33% vs 0%) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 7 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support 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. Barcode & QR Scanner sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and QR Code sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
QR Code holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QR Code has 13K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 0% of Barcode & QR Scanner's written reviews are positive against 33% of QR Code's.
Barcode & QR Scanner ships an update every 7 months, QR Code every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
