# One Scan vs Document Scanner & PDF Editor

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Document Scanner & PDF Editor at 100% against One Scan's 26%. Document Scanner & PDF Editor also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). One Scan's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 14 months). On price, ads, 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 Document Scanner & PDF Editor sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

One Scan holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: One Scan has 12K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of One Scan's written reviews are positive against 100% of Document Scanner & PDF Editor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

One Scan ships an update every 2 months, Document Scanner & PDF Editor every 14 months. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
