Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Doxie at 4.5 against AnkerWork's 4.3. Doxie also leads on ratings volume (741 vs 96). AnkerWork's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Doxie holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Doxie has 741 ratings behind it against 96, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 24% of Doxie's written reviews are positive against 26% of AnkerWork's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Doxie ships an update every 2 months, AnkerWork every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on September 29, 2026.
