Verdict
MyUPMC and Weis Pharmacy both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 95% of Weis Pharmacy's written reviews are positive against 29% of MyUPMC's. Weis Pharmacy also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). MyUPMC's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (120K vs 1.3K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
