Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: QRReader at 5.0 against QR Scanner Pro *'s 4.1. QRReader also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.6). QR Scanner Pro *'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 7 months). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
