# BrickScan vs CuppaZee

BrickScan and CuppaZee both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of CuppaZee's written reviews are positive against 60% of BrickScan's. BrickScan's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 11 months) and ratings volume (1.6K vs 2). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BrickScan sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and CuppaZee sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $29.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for BrickScan against 5.0 for CuppaZee. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BrickScan has 1.6K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 60% of BrickScan's written reviews are positive against 100% of CuppaZee's.

BrickScan ships an update weekly, CuppaZee every 11 months. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
