# NOTE'd vs WeNotes+

The clearest difference is review sentiment: WeNotes+ at 93% against NOTE'd's 43%. WeNotes+ also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.3) and ratings volume (2.2K vs 354). NOTE'd's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NOTE'd sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and WeNotes+ sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

WeNotes+ holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WeNotes+ has 2.2K ratings behind it against 354, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 43% of NOTE'd's written reviews are positive against 93% of WeNotes+'s.

NOTE'd ships an update every 6 weeks, WeNotes+ every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
