Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: ShopSavvy at weekly against Price Check Scanner's every 3 weeks. ShopSavvy also leads on ratings volume (10K vs 711) and chart position (#176 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. ShopSavvy sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Price Check Scanner sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Price Check Scanner holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ShopSavvy has 10K ratings behind it against 711, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of ShopSavvy's written reviews are positive against 40% of Price Check Scanner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
ShopSavvy ships an update weekly, Price Check Scanner every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
