# OCR.net vs Scanner

The clearest difference is rating: Scanner at 4.9 against OCR.net's 1.0. Scanner also leads on ratings volume (13 vs 1). OCR.net's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 14.0). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Scanner sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. OCR.net asks for nothing beyond the download.

Scanner holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Scanner has 13 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
