# Jupyter Notebook vs Pyroid

The clearest difference is rating: Pyroid at 4.6 against Jupyter Notebook's 3.9. Pyroid also leads on review sentiment (82% vs 40%) and update cadence (daily vs fortnightly). Jupyter Notebook's advantage is chart position (#54 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Jupyter Notebook sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Pyroid sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Pyroid holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pyroid has 99 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 40% of Jupyter Notebook's written reviews are positive against 82% of Pyroid's.

Jupyter Notebook ships an update fortnightly, Pyroid daily. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
