Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Note! at 4.7 against In Your Note's 4.2. Note! also leads on ratings volume (1K vs 12). In Your Note's advantage is review sentiment (91% vs 61%) and update cadence (every 5 months vs every 13 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. In Your Note sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Note! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Note! holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Note! has 1K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of In Your Note's written reviews are positive against 61% of Note!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
In Your Note ships an update every 5 months, Note! every 13 months. Both last shipped on September 13, 2026.
