# Simplified vs Float Note

The clearest difference is ads: Simplified at none against Float Note's shown. Simplified also leads on ratings volume (187 vs 2). Float Note's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and review sentiment (100% vs 88%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Simplified sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Float Note sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Float Note holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simplified has 187 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 88% of Simplified's written reviews are positive against 100% of Float Note's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
