# RemNote vs Study Master

The clearest difference is update cadence: RemNote at every 3 days against Study Master's every 11 months. RemNote also leads on ratings volume (1.7K vs 2) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Study Master's advantage is device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RemNote sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and Study Master sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

RemNote holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RemNote has 1.7K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

RemNote ships an update every 3 days, Study Master every 11 months. Both last shipped on October 17, 2026.
