# Clear Scan vs Invoice Maker

The clearest difference is ads: Invoice Maker at none against Clear Scan's shown. Clear Scan's advantage is ratings volume (18K vs 24) and rating (4.8 vs 4.4). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clear Scan sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Invoice Maker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Clear Scan holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clear Scan has 18K ratings behind it against 24, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Clear Scan ships an update every 3 months, Invoice Maker every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
