Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Falling Note at 4.5 against PianoKiwis's 4.2. Falling Note also leads on ratings volume (334 vs 28) and chart position (#164 vs unranked). PianoKiwis's advantage is review sentiment (82% vs 63%) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PianoKiwis sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $15.99 per month and Falling Note sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Falling Note holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Falling Note has 334 ratings behind it against 28, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of PianoKiwis's written reviews are positive against 63% of Falling Note's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PianoKiwis ships an update weekly, Falling Note every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
