Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: RxLocal at every 5 weeks against My Local Pharmacies's every 47 months. RxLocal also leads on review sentiment (28% vs 0%) and ratings volume (78K vs 1). My Local Pharmacies's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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.
My Local Pharmacies holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RxLocal has 78K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of RxLocal's written reviews are positive against 0% of My Local Pharmacies's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
RxLocal ships an update every 5 weeks, My Local Pharmacies every 47 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
