Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: AI Note Taker at 217 against Summary's 12. AI Note Taker also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.7) and device support (5 vs 2). Summary's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Summary sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per 7 days and AI Note Taker sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

AI Note Taker holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AI Note Taker has 217 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Summary's written reviews are positive against 96% of AI Note Taker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Summary ships an update every 6 days, AI Note Taker fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
