ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

NoteGuru holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Daylist has 97 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Daylist's written reviews are positive against 0% of NoteGuru's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Daylist ships an update fortnightly, NoteGuru every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 14, 2026.
