# WeNote vs My Notes

The clearest difference is ratings volume: WeNote at 1K against My Notes's 3. My Notes's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WeNote sells 19 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and My Notes sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

My Notes holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WeNote has 1K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of WeNote's written reviews are positive against 80% of My Notes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

WeNote ships an update every 2 weeks, My Notes every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on October 11, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
