Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: TwinMind at free against Notella's freemium. TwinMind also leads on ratings volume (927 vs 6) and review sentiment (78% vs 60%). Notella's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. TwinMind sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and Notella sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Notella holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TwinMind has 927 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of TwinMind's written reviews are positive against 60% of Notella's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

TwinMind ships an update weekly, Notella every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
