# SelfNote vs Alaid

The clearest difference is ratings volume: SelfNote at 5 against Alaid's 1. SelfNote also leads on device support (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SelfNote sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Alaid sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for SelfNote against 5.0 for Alaid. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SelfNote has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
