Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: 百度 at 4.5 against QR Code Reader.Barcode Scan's 3.0. 百度 also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (31K vs 1). QR Code Reader.Barcode Scan's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support 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. 百度 sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and QR Code Reader.Barcode Scan sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
百度 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 百度 has 31K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
百度 ships an update weekly, QR Code Reader.Barcode Scan every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
