Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Barcode Reader + at 100% against RiDATA's 17%. Barcode Reader + also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). RiDATA's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
