# Make vs Formatify Convert & Scan Files

The clearest difference is rating: Make at 4.7 against Formatify Convert & Scan Files's 1.0. Make also leads on ratings volume (198 vs 1). Formatify Convert & Scan Files's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Make sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per year and Formatify Convert & Scan Files sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Make holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Make has 198 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Make's written reviews are positive against 75% of Formatify Convert & Scan Files's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Make ships an update every 4 months, Formatify Convert & Scan Files every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 11, 2026 respectively.
