What StampSnap does well
- One of the longer-running AI stamp scanners (on the store since March 2024, now on version 5.1).
- Offers a one-time Lifetime purchase ($34.99) — an option Stampo doesn't have.
- Runs on older devices (iOS 14+) and on Apple Silicon Macs and Vision Pro.
What to weigh before subscribing
- Its 3.9-star average (327 ratings) is the lowest among the major stamp scanners on this page.
- The $6.99 weekly plan works out to about $363 a year if left running — check which plan you're on before subscribing.
- English only.
How Stampo is different
- One honest price. Stampo has a single Annual Subscription at $14.99/year — no weekly plan that quietly compounds to hundreds of dollars, no overlapping tiers to decode on a paywall.
- Honest value estimates. Most stamps are genuinely worth very little — and Stampo says so. Values are shown as condition-tiered ranges, the same expectation-setting approach as our published stamp value guides, which cite real catalog and auction sources.
- Full identification, not just a name. Country, year, denomination and catalog number from one photo, plus a collection catalog to keep what you scan.
- The honest trade-off: Stampo launched in June 2026, so it has no public rating history yet. If a long track record matters most to you today, StampSnap's 327 ratings are a real signal — try Stampo free and judge the results yourself.
Which should you choose?
Choose StampSnap if you want a one-time lifetime purchase instead of any subscription, or you're on an older iPhone (it supports iOS 14).
Choose Stampo if you want the lowest annual price in this category ($14.99/year), value estimates that level with you about what stamps are really worth, and a catalog-style breakdown (country, year, denomination, catalog number) from every scan.
