Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: QRCode at 88% against NuWave Connect's 13%. QRCode also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). NuWave Connect's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. QRCode sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. NuWave Connect asks for nothing beyond the download.
QRCode holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NuWave Connect has 607 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 13% of NuWave Connect's written reviews are positive against 88% of QRCode's.
NuWave Connect ships an update every 3 months, QRCode monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
