One Note Widget holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 1.0.

Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Shared Note Widgets's written reviews are positive against 25% of One Note Widget's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Shared Note Widgets ships an update every 3 weeks, One Note Widget every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
