# TruDoc vs M42

The clearest difference is rating: TruDoc at 3.2 against M42's 1.0. TruDoc also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months). On price, review sentiment 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.

TruDoc holds the better App Store score, 3.2 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TruDoc has 26 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of TruDoc's written reviews are positive against 33% of M42's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

TruDoc ships an update fortnightly, M42 every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and June 12, 2026 respectively.
