# Quick Notes vs MBOX to PDF

The clearest difference is monetization model: MBOX to PDF at free against Quick Notes's free with in-app purchases. MBOX to PDF also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 77%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Quick Notes's advantage is ratings volume (306 vs 2) and device support (5 vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Quick Notes sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and MBOX to PDF sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MBOX to PDF holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Quick Notes has 306 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 77% of Quick Notes's written reviews are positive against 100% of MBOX to PDF's.
