# Swift Cleaner vs Scan QR Code

The clearest difference is rating: Scan QR Code at 4.7 against Swift Cleaner's 4.2. Scan QR Code also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (42% vs 16%). Swift Cleaner's advantage is ratings volume (104 vs 11) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Swift Cleaner sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Scan QR Code sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Scan QR Code holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Swift Cleaner has 104 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 16% of Swift Cleaner's written reviews are positive against 42% of Scan QR Code's.

Swift Cleaner ships an update every 3 weeks, Scan QR Code every 5 days. Both last shipped on October 15, 2026.
