Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: My Molina at none against NYP Connect's shown. My Molina also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.1) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). NYP Connect's advantage is review sentiment (30% vs 13%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

My Molina holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Molina has 7.1K ratings behind it against 310, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of NYP Connect's written reviews are positive against 13% of My Molina's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

NYP Connect ships an update every 6 weeks, My Molina fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 3, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
