Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: InstaCured at 4.9 against Helix Patient App's 3.7. InstaCured also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (monthly vs every 16 months). Helix Patient App's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
