Verdict
The clearest difference is price: EpiSim at Free against Veterinary Manual's $2.99. EpiSim also leads on update cadence (every 5 months vs every 45 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Veterinary Manual's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
