# DoMemo vs CardFlow Minimal Writing

The clearest difference is rating: DoMemo at 4.5 against CardFlow Minimal Writing's 3.0. DoMemo also leads on ratings volume (10 vs 2). CardFlow Minimal Writing's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DoMemo sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and CardFlow Minimal Writing sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

DoMemo holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DoMemo has 10 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

DoMemo ships an update every 3 weeks, CardFlow Minimal Writing every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
