# Studley vs CapNote

The clearest difference is rating: CapNote at 5.0 against Studley's 4.5. CapNote also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.5). Studley's advantage is ratings volume (64 vs 10). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Studley sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and CapNote sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

CapNote holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Studley has 64 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Studley ships an update fortnightly, CapNote every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on September 12, 2026 and August 13, 2026 respectively.
