# Lexis® vs DocReviewPad

The clearest difference is rating: DocReviewPad at 4.4 against Lexis®'s 3.8. DocReviewPad also leads on review sentiment (44% vs 23%) and ratings volume (81 vs 5). Lexis®'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DocReviewPad sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $600.00 per year. Lexis® asks for nothing beyond the download.

DocReviewPad holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.8.
