# Lippincott Nursing Advisor vs NurseThink® NoteBook

The clearest difference is rating: NurseThink® NoteBook at 3.7 against Lippincott Nursing Advisor's 2.3. NurseThink® NoteBook also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Lippincott Nursing Advisor's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 7 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lippincott Nursing Advisor sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $24.99 per year and NurseThink® NoteBook sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $47.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

NurseThink® NoteBook holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lippincott Nursing Advisor has 32 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Lippincott Nursing Advisor ships an update every 3 months, NurseThink® NoteBook every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
