# Tabsy vs NoteOS

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tabsy at 100% against NoteOS's 57%. Tabsy also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). NoteOS's advantage is ratings volume (27 vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tabsy sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and NoteOS sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $39.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tabsy holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NoteOS has 27 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Tabsy's written reviews are positive against 57% of NoteOS's.

Tabsy ships an update every 5 days, NoteOS every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
