Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Ugly Test at none against Mood Scanner's shown. Ugly Test also leads on review sentiment (21% vs 10%) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.6). Mood Scanner's advantage is rating (2.8 vs 2.5). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Ugly Test sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Mood Scanner sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Mood Scanner holds the better App Store score, 2.8 against 2.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 95 and 39 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of Ugly Test's written reviews are positive against 10% of Mood Scanner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Ugly Test ships an update every 10 months, Mood Scanner every 13 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
