Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Doc.Scanner at every 2 weeks against InstaScan's every 2 months. Doc.Scanner also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.6). InstaScan's advantage is ratings volume (1.9K vs 17). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. InstaScan sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 3 months and Doc.Scanner sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Doc.Scanner holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: InstaScan has 1.9K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two.
InstaScan ships an update every 2 months, Doc.Scanner every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and June 4, 2026 respectively.
