# Quick Scan vs Translator

The clearest difference is ads: Translator at none against Quick Scan's shown. Translator also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Quick Scan's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly) and ratings volume (42 vs 4). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Quick Scan against 4.8 for Translator. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Quick Scan has 42 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Quick Scan ships an update every 5 days, Translator fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on August 16, 2026 and September 7, 2026 respectively.
