Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: AI Note Taker at 4.3 against Audio Transcription's 2.6. AI Note Taker also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs fortnightly) and ratings volume (18 vs 5). Audio Transcription's advantage is review sentiment (36% vs 25%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Audio Transcription sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days and AI Note Taker sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
AI Note Taker holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5 and 18 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of Audio Transcription's written reviews are positive against 25% of AI Note Taker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Audio Transcription ships an update fortnightly, AI Note Taker every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
