ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

eClinicalTouch 4 holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: eClinicalTouch 4 has 1.1K ratings behind it against 39, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of DeepScribe's written reviews are positive against 14% of eClinicalTouch 4's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
