Both are free to download. EMS Guidebook sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. 101 Last Minute Study Tips EMT asks for nothing beyond the download.
EMS Guidebook holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: EMS Guidebook has 90 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of EMS Guidebook's written reviews are positive against 100% of 101 Last Minute Study Tips EMT's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
EMS Guidebook ships an update every 6 months, 101 Last Minute Study Tips EMT every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
