See the warning signs. Verify independently. Know what happens to your check. Every ScamZero check includes a Private Scam Evidence Card. Review observable warning signs, follow a practical independent verification plan, and see a plain-language receipt for the content you chose to submit, the checks performed, redacted device-only history, and optional analytics settings. ScamZero analyzes screenshots, messages, links, and QR codes that you choose to check. Results are guidance—not a guarantee that content is safe. CHECK FOUR TYPES OF CONTENT • Choose a screenshot from messages, email, social media, or marketplace conversations • Paste a suspicious text, direct message, job offer, or payment request • Inspect a link without rendering the page or running its scripts • Scan a QR code and review its decoded destination before deciding whether to continue UNDERSTAND THE WARNING SIGNS • See Low Risk, Suspicious, or High Risk guidance • Review explainable indicators such as urgency, impersonation, credential requests, unusual payments, redirects, and deceptive domains • Get practical next steps for independent verification • See when a reputation or registration source was unavailable instead of receiving an invented result PRIVACY-FOCUSED BY DESIGN • Screenshots are resized and stripped of unnecessary metadata before analysis • Raw scan content is not stored in ScamZero’s application database or sent to analytics • Redacted history stays on your device • Clear local history or delete the pseudonymous installation profile from Settings • Optional analytics records only allowlisted event names and coarse outcomes ScamZero includes three completed checks. Optional weekly and annual ScamZero Pro subscriptions provide unlimited completed checks while active. Apple shows the localized price and renewal period before purchase, handles payment and cancellation, and Restore Purchases is available in the app. IMPORTANT: ScamZero can miss scams. A Low Risk result does not mean a message, sender, website, QR code, or transaction is definitely safe. Verify unexpected requests using a trusted phone number or official website before sharing information or sending money.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: ScamZero at none against BlueGuard's shown. ScamZero also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
