Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: NetGuard by C at 86% against NetScan's 50%. NetGuard by C also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). NetScan's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (97 vs 4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support 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. NetScan sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and NetGuard by C sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
NetScan holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NetScan has 97 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of NetScan's written reviews are positive against 86% of NetGuard by C's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
NetScan ships an update every 6 weeks, NetGuard by C weekly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
