Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Physiotutors at freemium against Medbridge's subscription. Physiotutors also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 2 months). Medbridge's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 135). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Medbridge sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Physiotutors sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. 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 Medbridge against 4.8 for Physiotutors. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Medbridge has 13K ratings behind it against 135, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 59% of Medbridge's written reviews are positive against 56% of Physiotutors's.
Medbridge ships an update every 2 months, Physiotutors every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
