# AI Scanner vs betterself.1

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: betterself.1 at none against AI Scanner's 4. betterself.1 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). AI Scanner's advantage is ratings volume (9.2K vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AI Scanner sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. betterself.1 asks for nothing beyond the download.
