Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Nestmed at free against therapyBOSS's freemium. Nestmed also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (67% vs 57%). therapyBOSS's advantage is ratings volume (681 vs 14) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
