Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: QR Code and Barcode at none against Qr's shown. QR Code and Barcode also leads on review sentiment (54% vs 36%). Qr's advantage is ratings volume (3.6K vs 21) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
