Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: WhoeverNote at 5.0 against Sticky Notes's 4.4. WhoeverNote also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). Sticky Notes's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (6K vs 2). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sticky Notes sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and WhoeverNote sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

WhoeverNote holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sticky Notes has 6K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Sticky Notes's written reviews are positive against 53% of WhoeverNote's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Sticky Notes ships an update every 5 weeks, WhoeverNote monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
