# Keeple vs HyNote

The clearest difference is price: HyNote at Free against Keeple's $19.99. HyNote also leads on ratings volume (7.6K vs 1) and update cadence (weekly vs every 4 weeks). Keeple's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 14) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

HyNote is free to download; Keeple costs $19.99 up front. HyNote sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Keeple asks for nothing beyond the download.

Keeple holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HyNote has 7.6K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Keeple ships an update every 4 weeks, HyNote weekly. Both last shipped on October 17, 2026.
