Both are free to download. Quick Notes sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Contact Eclipse asks for nothing beyond the download.
Contact Eclipse holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Quick Notes has 298 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Contact Eclipse's written reviews are positive against 77% of Quick Notes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Contact Eclipse ships an update every 8 months, Quick Notes every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
