# SmartScan Pro vs Easy Scanner

SmartScan Pro and Easy Scanner both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 68% of SmartScan Pro's written reviews are positive against 38% of Easy Scanner's. SmartScan Pro also leads on ratings volume (1.4K vs 172). Easy Scanner's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SmartScan Pro sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Easy Scanner sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for SmartScan Pro against 4.5 for Easy Scanner. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SmartScan Pro has 1.4K ratings behind it against 172, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 68% of SmartScan Pro's written reviews are positive against 38% of Easy Scanner's.

SmartScan Pro ships an update every 2 months, Easy Scanner every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
