# Zod vs LoroNote

The clearest difference is review sentiment: LoroNote at 86% against Zod's 50%. LoroNote also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (53 vs 1). Zod's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LoroNote sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Zod asks for nothing beyond the download.

Zod holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LoroNote has 53 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Zod's written reviews are positive against 86% of LoroNote's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Zod ships an update fortnightly, LoroNote every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
