Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Medscape at 64% against iHemostasis's 0%. Medscape also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (1.4K vs 2). iHemostasis's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 3.6) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
iHemostasis holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Medscape has 1.4K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Medscape's written reviews are positive against 0% of iHemostasis's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Medscape ships an update fortnightly, iHemostasis every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 3, 2026 respectively.
