Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Eventscribe holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Eventscribe has 8.3K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of Eventscribe's written reviews are positive against 67% of OkWhen's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
