Verdict
The clearest difference is price: This Week at Free against Lock Notes Pro's $9.99. Lock Notes Pro's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (270 vs 10). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

This Week is free to download; Lock Notes Pro costs $9.99 up front. This Week sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Lock Notes Pro sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $14.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Lock Notes Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lock Notes Pro has 270 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of This Week's written reviews are positive against 82% of Lock Notes Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
This Week ships an update every 3 weeks, Lock Notes Pro every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
