Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: MyScript Notes at 4.7 against Meeting Notepad's 2.7. MyScript Notes also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (39K vs 3). Meeting Notepad's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 66%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

MyScript Notes holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MyScript Notes has 39K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Meeting Notepad's written reviews are positive against 66% of MyScript Notes's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Meeting Notepad ships an update every 4 months, MyScript Notes every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 12, 2026 respectively.
