Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: NoteGen at 76% against Notro's 40%. NoteGen also leads on ratings volume (474 vs 2). Notro's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Notro sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and NoteGen sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Notro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NoteGen has 474 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Notro's written reviews are positive against 76% of NoteGen's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Notro ships an update every 6 days, NoteGen weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
