# QuickNotes X vs JetNotes

QuickNotes X and JetNotes both sit at 4.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 83% of JetNotes's written reviews are positive against 38% of QuickNotes X's. JetNotes also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 5 weeks). QuickNotes X's advantage is ratings volume (3.8K vs 7). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. QuickNotes X sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 3 months and JetNotes sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.29 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

QuickNotes X holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QuickNotes X has 3.8K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of QuickNotes X's written reviews are positive against 83% of JetNotes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

QuickNotes X ships an update every 5 weeks, JetNotes every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
