# Prayer Notes vs CCoF

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CCoF at none against Prayer Notes's 6. CCoF also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Prayer Notes's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 21 months) and ratings volume (3.8K vs 8). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Prayer Notes sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. CCoF asks for nothing beyond the download.

CCoF holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Prayer Notes has 3.8K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Prayer Notes ships an update every 2 months, CCoF every 21 months. Both last shipped on October 20, 2026.
