# Danger Notes vs Timestripe

The clearest difference is ads: Timestripe at none against Danger Notes's shown. Timestripe also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Danger Notes's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Danger Notes sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and Timestripe sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Danger Notes holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Danger Notes has 2.3K ratings behind it against 125, so its average is the more settled of the two.
