Both are free to download. Note Board sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and WeNotes+ sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

WeNotes+ holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WeNotes+ has 2.2K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Note Board's written reviews are positive against 93% of WeNotes+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Note Board ships an update every 2 months, WeNotes+ every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on August 17, 2026 and August 8, 2026 respectively.
