# Dana Mate vs Notee

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Notee at 70% against Dana Mate's 7%. Notee also leads on rating (4.8 vs 1.3) and ratings volume (5K vs 16). Dana Mate's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dana Mate sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Notee sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Notee holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 1.3.
