Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Tap & Print at 4.2 against VuPoint Scanner's 1.6. Tap & Print also leads on review sentiment (52% vs 11%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 21 months). VuPoint Scanner's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 16) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 17.6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
