It all started off on a hike with an innocuous but beautiful pile of rocks, stacked in improbable but perfect balance at a point where two trails crossed in the wilderness. It was a physical marker letting us know that we were on path, heading in the right direction and that someone had blazed this trail prior. A comforting reminder that we were all part of the same journey, connected by our humanity to each other, never alone. Quite the analogy for our mission to bring connectedness back to healthcare.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Cairns Health at every 3 weeks against Hexoskin's every 2 months. Cairns Health also leads on iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.6). Hexoskin's advantage is device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
