Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: ASPS Mobile at free against MedOne's free with in-app purchases. ASPS Mobile also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). MedOne's advantage is review sentiment (22% vs 0%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
