# ScanCode vs Daylist

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Daylist at 69% against ScanCode's 0%. Daylist also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.5) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 weeks). ScanCode's advantage is device support (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ScanCode sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Daylist sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
