# One Scan vs eSign App

One Scan and eSign App both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 85% of eSign App's written reviews are positive against 26% of One Scan's. eSign App also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and chart position (#74 vs unranked). One Scan's advantage is monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and ratings volume (12K vs 1.5K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases 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 eSign App sells 9 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 eSign App. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: One Scan has 12K ratings behind it against 1.5K, 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 85% of eSign App's.

One Scan ships an update every 2 months, eSign App every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
