Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: DocPortal at 5.0 against My Open Access's 3.0. DocPortal also leads on monetization model (free vs subscription). My Open Access's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 60%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads 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.
DocPortal holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 1 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of My Open Access's written reviews are positive against 60% of DocPortal's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
My Open Access ships an update every 5 weeks, DocPortal every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
