Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Minimalist Whiteboard at 4.6 against JetNotes's 4.1. Minimalist Whiteboard also leads on ratings volume (154 vs 7). JetNotes's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Minimalist Whiteboard sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and JetNotes sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.29 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Minimalist Whiteboard holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Minimalist Whiteboard has 154 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Minimalist Whiteboard's written reviews are positive against 83% of JetNotes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Minimalist Whiteboard ships an update every 2 months, JetNotes every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on September 14, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
