Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Scanner Pro at 80% against One Scan's 26%. Scanner Pro also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (335K vs 12K). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
