# EasyNotes vs NoteFly

The clearest difference is ratings volume: EasyNotes at 4.1K against NoteFly's 1. EasyNotes also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (16.6 vs 18.0). NoteFly's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. EasyNotes sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and NoteFly sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

NoteFly holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: EasyNotes has 4.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

EasyNotes ships an update every 10 days, NoteFly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
