# BCBSNM vs MedicsVideo

The clearest difference is rating: MedicsVideo at 5.0 against BCBSNM's 4.6. MedicsVideo also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). BCBSNM's advantage is ratings volume (1.5K vs 2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

MedicsVideo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BCBSNM has 1.5K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

BCBSNM ships an update fortnightly, MedicsVideo every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
