Verdict

The call

扫描翻译大师 and 微信输入法 both sit at 4.1 stars, but that hides the real split: 90% of 扫描翻译大师's written reviews are positive against 43% of 微信输入法's. 扫描翻译大师 also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.1). 微信输入法's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price, rating, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
