Both are free to download. Pendo Note sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Goalday sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Pendo Note holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pendo Note has 845 ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 90% of Pendo Note's written reviews are positive against 72% of Goalday's.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
