Reasons and sources
Main focus
Even. Different priorities, rather than a feature winner. MyBloodTest fits a routine centered on blood work; Guava fits someone who also wants a broader medical record. This compares product scope, not independently tested ease of use.
MyBloodTest
Lab results are the center of the app: compare dates, review trends and reference ranges, and request optional AI insights within your plan allowance. Supported wellness imports add context to your blood work.
Lab tracking sits alongside medical records, visit preparation, medication and symptom logs, vaccinations and device data. Guava is designed to bring these different parts of your health history together.
Advantage: MyBloodTest. MyBloodTest offers limited free scanning; Guava lists automatic lab extraction as a paid feature. This compares access, not extraction accuracy.
MyBloodTest
Scan a PDF or photo, review extracted dates, units and values, then save the entries. A limited scan allowance is available on the free plan. Sign-in and internet are required; check the current allowance in the app.
Guava accepts uploaded documents on its free plan. Automatically detecting and importing their lab results is listed under Premium. Uploaded results can be corrected.
Advantage: MyBloodTest. MyBloodTest offers an account-free local mode on mobile. That is an advantage when local control matters, not a claim that either service is more secure.
MyBloodTest
On iOS and Android, you can start with manual entry without an account and keep results on the device. Cloud sync is optional. Scanning still uses cloud processing and stores original reports online; web access and share links also use cloud storage.
Guava requires an email address for the account and uses cloud services for health data. Its policy provides account deletion and a full data download by request.
Even. Both show lab trends and health context. MyBloodTest emphasizes lab comparisons; Guava covers broader daily logging. Neither has established greater clinical or analytical accuracy here.
MyBloodTest
Compare dated lab trends, use cited reference sources or add your own ranges. Supported mobile wellness imports can add context to the parent profile. Imported wellness data stays on that device rather than syncing across devices. Optional AI insights have plan-based allowances.
Charts show lab changes and reference ranges. Symptoms, medications and device data add broader context. Basic trends and correlations are free; automatic insights and the AI Assistant require Premium.
Even. Both support family use. MyBloodTest clearly includes five free child profiles; that does not establish that every Guava child profile requires payment.
MyBloodTest
Keep up to five child sub-profiles under the parent account without buying a subscription. The paid Family plan shares premium access with separate adult accounts. Child profiles and paid family membership are different features.
Guava supports managing a child or another person, with growth and vaccination tracking. Premium includes unlimited profile managers; the cited pages do not establish all free child-profile allowances.
Advantage: Guava. Guava provides direct, continuing patient portal connections. MyBloodTest imports supported observations from a clinical-record file you provide.
MyBloodTest
Download a compatible C-CDA file from a portal such as MyChart, then import its supported numeric lab observations. This is a file import you initiate, not a continuing connection to your provider. Compatibility depends on the export format and observations included.
Connect supported patient portals for continuing imports of labs and other records. Coverage is primarily in the US. Guava also accepts CCDA files when a direct connection is unavailable.
Advantage: Guava. Both share records. Guava adds finer selection for lab exports and a printable PDF workflow alongside CSV; MyBloodTest offers a PIN-protected history link and CSV.
MyBloodTest
Create a time-limited, revocable link protected by a generated PIN. It includes the selected profile's lab history; optional wellness categories and original reports have separate controls. Lab results can also be exported as CSV. The share is not a selection of individual lab biomarkers or dates.
Your main goal is understanding your blood work over time. You want lab comparisons, reference ranges and optional AI insights in an app centered on that routine. A limited free scanning allowance, local manual tracking and up to five free child profiles are further reasons to choose MyBloodTest.
02
Consider Guava
You want labs, visits, medications, vaccinations and symptoms in the same health record, especially when your provider supports automatic portal connections. Selective lab exports and printable visit summaries are further reasons to choose Guava.
Start with the reports you already have.
For occasional PDFs or photos, MyBloodTest lets you try extraction within the free allowance before choosing a paid plan. If you prefer entering results yourself, its native apps can keep that history on your device without an account. Scanning is a separate cloud feature, even when result sync is off.
For records that should arrive automatically from a supported clinic, Guava has the stronger connection workflow. Check its provider list before deciding. Both apps track trends; this comparison does not establish that one is more accurate or easier for every person.
There is no automatic transfer from a Guava account to MyBloodTest. Keep your original reports and try one readable PDF in MyBloodTest. Review all extracted dates, units and values before saving. A Guava CSV export may need reformatting to match the MyBloodTest importer.
Choose MyBloodTest when blood work is your main focus: comparing dated results, following trends and using optional AI insights. It also offers a limited free report-scanning allowance, local manual tracking on mobile and up to five free child profiles. Guava is a broader medical record with strengths in provider connections and flexible exports.
Is Guava free for blood test results?
Yes, Guava has a free plan. Its pricing separates document uploads from automatic lab extraction: uploads are free, while automatic extraction is Premium. MyBloodTest also has a free plan, with a limited scanning allowance shown in the app.
Can both apps help me prepare for a doctor visit?
Yes. Guava offers printable visit summaries and selective lab exports. MyBloodTest offers an expiring, revocable PIN-protected link to a profile's lab history and CSV export. Neither replaces a clinician's interpretation of your results.
YOUR NEXT STEP
Start with one report
Try MyBloodTest with results you already have. Enter them manually or scan a report within your plan's allowance, check the dates, values and units, and build your history from there.
MyBloodTest scanning uses cloud processing and stores original reports under your account. Web results use cloud storage. Read the privacy policy. MyBloodTest is a wellness tracker and does not replace medical care.
