# QuickFox vs 读书笔记

The clearest difference is ads: QuickFox at none against 读书笔记's shown. QuickFox also leads on ratings volume (295 vs 1) and review sentiment (85% vs 67%). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. QuickFox sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and 读书笔记 sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

QuickFox holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QuickFox has 295 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
