Verdict

The call

MDHearing also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). audiometric instruments's advantage is review sentiment (57% vs 37%) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

MDHearing holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MDHearing has 1.8K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 37% of MDHearing's written reviews are positive against 57% of audiometric instruments's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MDHearing ships an update every 2 months, audiometric instruments every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
