# AI Notebook vs Murble

The clearest difference is rating: AI Notebook at 4.6 against Murble's 3.0. AI Notebook also leads on ratings volume (193 vs 5) and device support (5 vs 2). Murble's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AI Notebook sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and Murble sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

AI Notebook holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AI Notebook has 193 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of AI Notebook's written reviews are positive against 50% of Murble's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

AI Notebook ships an update every 9 days, Murble every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 10, 2026 respectively.
