Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: QR Code Reader + at none against QR Scanner's shown. QR Code Reader + also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. QR Code Reader + sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and QR Scanner sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
QR Code Reader + holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 510 and 320 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of QR Code Reader +'s written reviews are positive against 60% of QR Scanner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
QR Code Reader + ships an update every 6 days, QR Scanner every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
