# Source & Cast vs PeerPop Scanner

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PeerPop Scanner at 100% against Source & Cast's 38%. PeerPop Scanner also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2). Source & Cast's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (711 vs 5). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Source & Cast sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. PeerPop Scanner asks for nothing beyond the download.

Source & Cast holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Source & Cast has 711 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of Source & Cast's written reviews are positive against 100% of PeerPop Scanner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Source & Cast ships an update every 5 weeks, PeerPop Scanner every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
