# VisualDx vs InfantRisk HCP

VisualDx and InfantRisk HCP both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 84% of VisualDx's written reviews are positive against 39% of InfantRisk HCP's. VisualDx also leads on chart position (#19 vs #94). On price, rating, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VisualDx sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $39.99 per month and InfantRisk HCP sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

InfantRisk HCP holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 186 and 164 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of VisualDx's written reviews are positive against 39% of InfantRisk HCP's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

VisualDx ships an update fortnightly, InfantRisk HCP every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 19, 2026.
