# LockNote vs 香蕉日记

The clearest difference is rating: LockNote at 4.8 against 香蕉日记's 4.3. LockNote also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). 香蕉日记's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LockNote sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. 香蕉日记 asks for nothing beyond the download.

LockNote holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 13 and 32 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of LockNote's written reviews are positive against 71% of 香蕉日记's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and June 4, 2026 respectively.
