ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

BarcodeEasy holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BarcodeEasy has 187 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 34% of BarcodeEasy's written reviews are positive against 100% of Bar Code Scanner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
