Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Santo António at none against Médis's shown. Santo António also leads on rating (4.0 vs 3.7) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks). Médis's advantage is review sentiment (30% vs 0%) and ratings volume (17 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Santo António holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Médis has 17 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of Médis's written reviews are positive against 0% of Santo António's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Médis ships an update every 3 weeks, Santo António every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
