# Scan QR Code vs QR code generator

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Scan QR Code at 100% against QR code generator's 0%. Scan QR Code also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.0) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). QR code generator's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Scan QR Code sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and QR code generator sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $9.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Scan QR Code holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Scan QR Code has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Scan QR Code's written reviews are positive against 0% of QR code generator's.
