Description MedDuell is the quiz battle app for medical students. Compete right now in over 3,400 medical questions in real time against fellow students from across Germany — and find out who's truly ready for the Physikum! How it works: You start a duel — either via matchmaking against a random opponent or as a direct challenge against your friends. Each game consists of 9 rounds with 3 questions each. You have 20 seconds per question. Whoever has the most correct answers at the end wins trophies and moves up the league. 11 subject areas, you choose: Before each game, you select from 11 medical subject areas with numerous subtopics — including Biochemistry, Histology, Anatomy (Situs), Embryology, Conduction Pathways, CNS, Neurophysiology, Pharmacology, Musculoskeletal System, Head & Neck, and General Physiology. You decide what gets asked. 7 leagues — from beginner to master: Collect trophies through victories and climb through 7 leagues: Beginner, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Sapphire, and Master. The higher your league, the more each win counts — and the more you risk with each loss. At the end of the month, everything resets so everyone gets a fresh start. Know your strengths and weaknesses: Your personal stats dashboard shows you exactly where you stand: win rate, accuracy, points per round, and a breakdown by subject area. You'll instantly see whether you need to brush up on Biochemistry or whether you're already at master level in Anatomy. Play with friends: Find your fellow students using the search function, send friend requests, and challenge them directly to a duel.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: eMed at none against MedDuell's 2. eMed also leads on device support and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16). MedDuell's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 7 months). On price there is nothing between them.
