Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Quotes Folder at none against Thoughts's 3. Quotes Folder also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). Thoughts's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (277 vs 2). On price and device support 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
Both are free to download. Thoughts sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Quotes Folder asks for nothing beyond the download.
Quotes Folder holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Thoughts has 277 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of Quotes Folder's written reviews are positive against 86% of Thoughts's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Quotes Folder ships an update every 2 months, Thoughts every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
