Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Optum Specialty Pharmacy holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Optum Specialty Pharmacy has 6.6K ratings behind it against 117, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 24% of Optum Specialty Pharmacy's written reviews are positive against 57% of Rheumera's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Optum Specialty Pharmacy ships an update every 5 weeks, Rheumera monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
