# Know Notes vs NEC Nadia

The clearest difference is rating: Know Notes at 4.9 against NEC Nadia's 4.3. Know Notes also leads on ratings volume (31 vs 6). NEC Nadia's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Know Notes sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. NEC Nadia asks for nothing beyond the download.

Know Notes holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Know Notes has 31 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 96% of Know Notes's written reviews are positive against 100% of NEC Nadia's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
