Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Accurx at every 2 weeks against iResus's every 7 months. Accurx also leads on ratings volume (330 vs 4). iResus's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases 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.
iResus holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Accurx has 330 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Accurx's written reviews are positive against 50% of iResus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Accurx ships an update every 2 weeks, iResus every 7 months. Both last shipped on October 21, 2026.
