Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: My Select PT at 4.7 against Force Patient's 3.7. My Select PT also leads on ratings volume (3.2K vs 608) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). Force Patient's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and review sentiment (43% vs 30%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
My Select PT holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Select PT has 3.2K ratings behind it against 608, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Force Patient's written reviews are positive against 30% of My Select PT's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Force Patient ships an update every 3 weeks, My Select PT every 5 months. Both last shipped on September 23, 2026.
