Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Clinical Physio at 5.0 against Physiopedia's 4.3. Clinical Physio also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). Physiopedia's advantage is ratings volume (23 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support 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. Physiopedia sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $0.99 per month and Clinical Physio sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $20.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Clinical Physio holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Physiopedia has 23 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Physiopedia ships an update monthly, Clinical Physio every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 4, 2026 and August 26, 2026 respectively.
