# Medical Lab Tests vs iTransfuse

The clearest difference is rating: Medical Lab Tests at 4.8 against iTransfuse's 3.3. Medical Lab Tests also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 8). iTransfuse's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 61%) and in-app purchases (none vs 9). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Medical Lab Tests sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. iTransfuse asks for nothing beyond the download.

Medical Lab Tests holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Medical Lab Tests has 1.1K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Medical Lab Tests's written reviews are positive against 100% of iTransfuse's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Medical Lab Tests ships an update every 3 months, iTransfuse every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
