Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Screen Memo at 5.0 against VisiMarks's 4.5. Screen Memo also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). VisiMarks's advantage is review sentiment (60% vs 33%) and ratings volume (359 vs 4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Screen Memo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VisiMarks has 359 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of VisiMarks's written reviews are positive against 33% of Screen Memo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

VisiMarks ships an update every 2 months, Screen Memo fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
