# MedShot vs Tether

The clearest difference is ratings volume: MedShot at 5 against Tether's 1. MedShot also leads on iOS requirement (17.6 vs 26.5). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MedShot sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Tether sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for MedShot against 5.0 for Tether. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MedShot has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
