# One Scan vs Scanner App

One Scan and Scanner App both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 76% of Scanner App's written reviews are positive against 26% of One Scan's. Scanner App also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). One Scan's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (12K vs 191). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. One Scan sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Scanner App sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for One Scan against 4.8 for Scanner App. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: One Scan has 12K ratings behind it against 191, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 26% of One Scan's written reviews are positive against 76% of Scanner App's.

One Scan ships an update every 2 months, Scanner App every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
