# Baker's note vs ヨシケイ

The clearest difference is rating: ヨシケイ at 4.5 against Baker's note's 3.5. ヨシケイ also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (13K vs 4). Baker's note's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.1.1). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

ヨシケイ holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ヨシケイ has 13K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Baker's note's written reviews are positive against 59% of ヨシケイ's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Baker's note ships an update every 2 weeks, ヨシケイ every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
