ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Aetna Vision℠ Preferred holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Aetna Vision℠ Preferred has 4.4K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 7% of Aetna Vision℠ Preferred's written reviews are positive against 100% of MacroPilot's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
