Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: BarCode at none against Barcode Checker's shown. BarCode also leads on iOS requirement (15.5 vs 17.7.2). Barcode Checker's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
