# HOA vs Notee

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HOA at none against Notee's 10. HOA also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 69%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Notee's advantage is ratings volume (4.7K vs 6) and update cadence (weekly vs monthly). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Notee sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. HOA asks for nothing beyond the download.

HOA holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Notee has 4.7K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of HOA's written reviews are positive against 69% of Notee's.

HOA ships an update monthly, Notee weekly. The most recent releases landed on June 3, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
