Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Holonote at 91% against BuildingLink Resident App's 19%. Holonote also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). BuildingLink Resident App's advantage is ratings volume (2.1K vs 11) and rating (4.6 vs 4.4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
BuildingLink Resident App holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BuildingLink Resident App has 2.1K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 19% of BuildingLink Resident App's written reviews are positive against 91% of Holonote's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BuildingLink Resident App ships an update every 3 weeks, Holonote weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
