ScanAI

A QR code is a link you cannot read. ScanAI reads it for you. Point the camera at any code and ScanAI shows you where it actually goes — before you open it. Its AI checks the destination and gives you a plain-language verdict: safe, worth a second look, or dangerous, along with the specific reasons behind it. WHAT YOU GET BACK A verdict, the findings that led to it, and one clear next step. The findings are about the code in front of you, not a generic warning — the address it really resolves to, what the page on the other end is asking for, and whatever else about that particular code is worth knowing. ScanAI warns you. It never opens anything on your behalf, and the decision stays yours. YOUR FIRST CHECK IS FREE Every account gets one free AI analysis. Pro adds more, together with the full design toolkit. ALSO A QR MAKER Create codes for Wi-Fi, contacts, payments, social profiles, plain links and more. Choose colours, module and eye shapes, add a frame or your own logo, then share as an image or export as SVG for print. EVERYTHING YOU SCAN, KEPT History holds every code you have scanned or made, with the verdict each one received. A code nobody ever checked says exactly that, instead of quietly looking safe. Pro is an auto-renewing subscription. The price is shown in your own currency before you buy, and you can cancel any time from your Apple ID settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: ScanAI at weekly against IC's every 2 months. ScanAI also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
