# Greysheet vs Banknote ID

The clearest difference is ads: Greysheet at none against Banknote ID's shown. Greysheet also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 months) and rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Greysheet sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $10.00 per month and Banknote ID sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Greysheet holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Greysheet has 3.8K ratings behind it against 210, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 38% and 38% positive.

Greysheet ships an update every 9 days, Banknote ID every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
