# One Scan vs Scan Pro PDF

The clearest difference is ads: One Scan at none against Scan Pro PDF's shown. One Scan also leads on ratings volume (12K vs 130). Scan Pro PDF's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 26%) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). On price, rating, update cadence 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 Scan Pro PDF sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 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 4.7 for Scan Pro PDF. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: One Scan has 12K ratings behind it against 130, 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 50% of Scan Pro PDF's.

One Scan ships an update every 2 months, Scan Pro PDF every 3 months. Both last shipped on October 2, 2026.
