# Straight Nursing vs MedMatrix

The clearest difference is monetization model: Straight Nursing at free with in-app purchases against MedMatrix's subscription. Straight Nursing also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 86%). MedMatrix's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Straight Nursing sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and MedMatrix sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $44.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MedMatrix holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 11 and 18 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Straight Nursing's written reviews are positive against 86% of MedMatrix's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
