Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: QRFi at Free against myBarcode.app's $1.99. QRFi also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months). myBarcode.app's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.6 vs 4.2). On ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
