Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Hello Meds at Free against Streaks's $5.99. Hello Meds also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 72%) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.6). Streaks's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (27K vs 5). On ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Streaks holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Streaks has 27K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Streaks's written reviews are positive against 100% of Hello Meds's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Streaks ships an update every 2 weeks, Hello Meds monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
