# Noted vs Conversatum

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Conversatum at 100% against Noted's 55%. Conversatum also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). Noted's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (3.7K vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Noted sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Conversatum sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Conversatum holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Noted has 3.7K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 55% of Noted's written reviews are positive against 100% of Conversatum's.

Noted ships an update weekly, Conversatum every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
