# Barcode Reader for iPhone+ vs QR Code Toolbox+

The clearest difference is rating: QR Code Toolbox+ at 4.6 against Barcode Reader for iPhone+'s 2.0. QR Code Toolbox+ also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 7). Barcode Reader for iPhone+'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. QR Code Toolbox+ sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Barcode Reader for iPhone+ asks for nothing beyond the download.

QR Code Toolbox+ holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QR Code Toolbox+ has 1.6K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Barcode Reader for iPhone+'s written reviews are positive against 39% of QR Code Toolbox+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
