# iVRy vs QR_Controller

The clearest difference is rating: QR_Controller at 5.0 against iVRy's 3.9. QR_Controller also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 months). iVRy's advantage is ratings volume (150 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iVRy sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. QR_Controller asks for nothing beyond the download.

QR_Controller holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iVRy has 150 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

iVRy ships an update every 3 months, QR_Controller every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
