# Summary vs Voice Memo AI

The clearest difference is update cadence: Summary at every 6 days against Voice Memo AI's fortnightly. Summary also leads on chart position (#14 vs unranked) and device support (4 vs 1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Summary sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days and Voice Memo AI sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Summary ships an update every 6 days, Voice Memo AI fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
