The call

The clearest difference is price: ScanNet at Free against Pi Stats Mobile's $1.99. ScanNet also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (358 vs 13). Pi Stats Mobile's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On review sentiment there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ScanNet holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ScanNet has 358 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Pi Stats Mobile's written reviews are positive against 79% of ScanNet's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Pi Stats Mobile ships an update every 3 weeks, ScanNet every 2 months. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
