# RemNote vs Mind Palace

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mind Palace at 100% against RemNote's 73%. Mind Palace also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). RemNote's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RemNote sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and Mind Palace sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Mind Palace holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RemNote has 1.6K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
