# Microsoft Copilot vs Google Keep

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Google Keep at none against Microsoft Copilot's 18. Google Keep also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (42% vs 28%). Microsoft Copilot's advantage is ratings volume (1.3M vs 29K) and chart position (#8 vs #69). On price, rating, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Microsoft Copilot sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Google Keep asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Microsoft Copilot against 4.6 for Google Keep. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Microsoft Copilot has 1.3M ratings behind it against 29K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 28% of Microsoft Copilot's written reviews are positive against 42% of Google Keep's.

Microsoft Copilot ships an update every 4 days, Google Keep every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
