# Pasteline vs Luckynote

The clearest difference is ads: Luckynote at none against Pasteline's shown. Luckynote also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 68%) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). Pasteline's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pasteline sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per month and Luckynote sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Pasteline holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 6 and 9 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Pasteline's written reviews are positive against 100% of Luckynote's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Pasteline ships an update every 3 months, Luckynote weekly. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and September 16, 2026 respectively.
