Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: MedHub at 4.7 against SIMPL's 4.1. MedHub also leads on ratings volume (5K vs 16). SIMPL's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months) and review sentiment (40% vs 18%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
MedHub holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MedHub has 5K ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 18% of MedHub's written reviews are positive against 40% of SIMPL's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MedHub ships an update every 3 months, SIMPL every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 3, 2026 respectively.
