Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: YOUdermoscopy at none against VisualDx's 11. YOUdermoscopy also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.4). VisualDx's advantage is review sentiment (84% vs 53%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VisualDx sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $39.99 per month. YOUdermoscopy asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

YOUdermoscopy holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 186 and 41 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of VisualDx's written reviews are positive against 53% of YOUdermoscopy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

VisualDx ships an update fortnightly, YOUdermoscopy every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
