# Heges 3D Scanner vs in3D

The clearest difference is rating: in3D at 4.5 against Heges 3D Scanner's 2.8. in3D also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 3 months) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). Heges 3D Scanner's advantage is review sentiment (48% vs 31%). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Heges 3D Scanner sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and in3D sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

in3D holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 307 and 727 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Heges 3D Scanner's written reviews are positive against 31% of in3D's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Heges 3D Scanner ships an update every 3 months, in3D every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
