Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: IP Scanner at 4.6 against Glamox Wireless ZigBee's 1.0. IP Scanner also leads on ratings volume (889 vs 1) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Glamox Wireless ZigBee's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 60%) and in-app purchases (none vs 2). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IP Scanner sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Glamox Wireless ZigBee asks for nothing beyond the download.
IP Scanner holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IP Scanner has 889 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Glamox Wireless ZigBee's written reviews are positive against 60% of IP Scanner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Glamox Wireless ZigBee ships an update every 2 months, IP Scanner fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
