Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Scanner App at free with in-app purchases against ScanMe's subscription. Scanner App also leads on review sentiment (77% vs 59%) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). ScanMe's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
