# Sticky Widgets vs PlopNote

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PlopNote at 100% against Sticky Widgets's 33%. PlopNote also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.1). Sticky Widgets's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sticky Widgets sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and PlopNote sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PlopNote holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sticky Widgets has 66 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 33% of Sticky Widgets's written reviews are positive against 100% of PlopNote's.
