Verdict
The clearest difference is price: KwikList at $0.99 against Notepad's $6.99. KwikList also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 91%). Notepad's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). On ratings volume, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
KwikList costs $0.99 and Notepad $6.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Notepad holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of KwikList's written reviews are positive against 91% of Notepad's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
KwikList ships an update every 2 months, Notepad every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and August 16, 2026 respectively.
