# Scanner App vs Easy Scanner

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Scanner App at 88% against Easy Scanner's 38%. Scanner App also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (905 vs 172). Easy Scanner's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Scanner App sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 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.
