Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Scan at 5.0 against Gulf Coast Jam's 4.1. Scan also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 12 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Gulf Coast Jam's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
