Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Coconote at 4.8 against LectureScribe's 4.2. Coconote also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 4 months). LectureScribe's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 71%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Coconote sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and LectureScribe sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Coconote holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Coconote has 17K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Coconote's written reviews are positive against 100% of LectureScribe's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Coconote ships an update every 8 days, LectureScribe every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
