Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: TalkingPoints at 88% against Nottingham Post's 29%. TalkingPoints also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). Nottingham Post's advantage is rating (3.8 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (12 vs 1). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Nottingham Post sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. TalkingPoints asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Nottingham Post holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nottingham Post has 12 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of Nottingham Post's written reviews are positive against 88% of TalkingPoints's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Nottingham Post ships an update monthly, TalkingPoints every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
