# Your QR Code Scanner vs eScan

The clearest difference is rating: eScan at 4.6 against Your QR Code Scanner's 4.0. eScan also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 57%) and ratings volume (3.8K vs 534). Your QR Code Scanner's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and chart position there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Your QR Code Scanner sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and eScan sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

eScan holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: eScan has 3.8K ratings behind it against 534, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 57% of Your QR Code Scanner's written reviews are positive against 80% of eScan's.

Your QR Code Scanner ships an update every 2 weeks, eScan monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
