# Whisper Notes vs CollabCoder

The clearest difference is monetization model: CollabCoder at free against Whisper Notes's free with in-app purchases. CollabCoder also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Whisper Notes's advantage is ratings volume (50 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Whisper Notes sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days and CollabCoder sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $7.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

CollabCoder holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Whisper Notes has 50 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
