# Evernote Scannable vs Mobile Scanner App

Evernote Scannable and Mobile Scanner App both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 80% of Mobile Scanner App's written reviews are positive against 33% of Evernote Scannable's. Mobile Scanner App also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Evernote Scannable's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (418K vs 58K). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Evernote Scannable sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Mobile Scanner App sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Evernote Scannable against 4.8 for Mobile Scanner App. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Evernote Scannable has 418K ratings behind it against 58K, so its average is the more settled of the two.
