# Summary vs Note Now

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Summary at 18.0 against Note Now's 26.2. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Summary sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Note Now sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
