How we ranked these apps

We evaluated each app on six criteria that matter specifically to Indian patients in 2026:

  1. Language coverage: Native generation (not translation) across 90+ languages including all official Indian languages, with voice support.
  2. Verified drug interaction database: Cross-referenced against authoritative public medical sources (NIH MedlinePlus, FDA Orange Book, DDInter 2.0, WHO, Indian CDSCO/NPPA).
  3. Indian medicine recognition: Knows Indian brand names (Crocin, Dolo, Augmentin) natively, not just generic equivalents.
  4. Traditional medicine respect: Verifies desi ilaaj for safety rather than dismissing it.
  5. Pregnancy safety: First-class trimester-aware safety lookups.
  6. Privacy + price: End-to-end encryption, no data selling, transparent pricing.

We disclosed our affiliation with GoDavaii up-front. We chose not to hide it. The ranking reflects our honest read of each app's India-relevance — readers can disagree with the criteria, and we welcome that conversation. We update the ranking quarterly.
