The clearest difference is rating: SimplePractice for Clinicians at 4.7 against EMDR kit's 3.8. SimplePractice for Clinicians also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (34K vs 32). EMDR kit's advantage is review sentiment (45% vs 29%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

SimplePractice for Clinicians holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SimplePractice for Clinicians has 34K ratings behind it against 32, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of SimplePractice for Clinicians's written reviews are positive against 45% of EMDR kit's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SimplePractice for Clinicians ships an update every 3 weeks, EMDR kit every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
