# Barcode Maker vs Barcode Generator & Reader

The clearest difference is rating: Barcode Generator & Reader at 5.0 against Barcode Maker's 4.5. Barcode Generator & Reader also leads on ads (none vs shown). Barcode Maker's advantage is ratings volume (20 vs 2). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Barcode Maker sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per 7 days and Barcode Generator & Reader sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Barcode Generator & Reader holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Barcode Maker has 20 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
