Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Physiotech at 100% against Canada Post's 22%. Physiotech also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Canada Post's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 38 months) and ratings volume (5K vs 3). 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.
Physiotech holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Canada Post has 5K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 22% of Canada Post's written reviews are positive against 100% of Physiotech's.
Canada Post ships an update every 3 weeks, Physiotech every 38 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
