Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: DocUpdate at 61% against MiSight App's 0%. DocUpdate also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.0) and update cadence (every 11 days vs every 2 months). MiSight App's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
