# MedCalX vs E

The clearest difference is rating: E at 4.3 against MedCalX's 3.7. E also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (67% vs 46%). MedCalX's advantage is ratings volume (30 vs 3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MedCalX sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. E asks for nothing beyond the download.

E holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MedCalX has 30 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 46% of MedCalX's written reviews are positive against 67% of E's.
