# Scheduley vs Smart Noter

The clearest difference is rating: Smart Noter at 4.6 against Scheduley's 3.7. Smart Noter also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (2.4K vs 6). Scheduley's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Scheduley sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Smart Noter sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Smart Noter holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Noter has 2.4K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
