Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Scan to Excel at none against Doc's shown. Scan to Excel also leads on rating (3.3 vs 3.0). Doc's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 5 months) and review sentiment (33% vs 17%). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Doc sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Scan to Excel sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Scan to Excel holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 21 and 12 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Doc's written reviews are positive against 17% of Scan to Excel's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Doc ships an update monthly, Scan to Excel every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on August 6, 2026 and September 10, 2026 respectively.
