What are the differences between the multiple Genius Scan plans?

Genius Scan Plus is a retired plan packed with power features. It's not possible to subscribe to Genius Scan Plus anymore, but users who subscribed before the plan was retired are still entitled to this plan until they unsubscribe.


Genius Scan Ultra is Genius Scan's advanced plan. It includes all high-end features and a subscription to Genius Cloud.
