# StockUp vs Scripture Notes

The clearest difference is monetization model: StockUp at free with in-app purchases against Scripture Notes's subscription. StockUp also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 56%) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.0). Scripture Notes's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (63 vs 14). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. StockUp sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per year and Scripture Notes sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Scripture Notes holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 14 and 63 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of StockUp's written reviews are positive against 56% of Scripture Notes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

StockUp ships an update every 4 months, Scripture Notes fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on June 4, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
