The clearest difference is rating: Inova at 4.6 against MyScripps's 4.4. MyScripps's advantage is ratings volume (3.3K vs 436). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads 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.
Inova holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MyScripps has 3.3K ratings behind it against 436, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Inova's written reviews are positive against 62% of MyScripps's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Inova ships an update every 2 months, MyScripps every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
