# PicSeed vs Bloomnote

The clearest difference is rating: PicSeed at 5.0 against Bloomnote's 4.3. PicSeed also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 83%). Bloomnote's advantage is ratings volume (22 vs 3) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PicSeed sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Bloomnote sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PicSeed holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bloomnote has 22 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of PicSeed's written reviews are positive against 83% of Bloomnote's.

PicSeed ships an update fortnightly, Bloomnote weekly. The most recent releases landed on August 1, 2026 and June 4, 2026 respectively.
