Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Notarized at every 6 days against WebFX's every 2 months. Notarized also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). WebFX's advantage is ratings volume (112 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. WebFX sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Notarized sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Notarized holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WebFX has 112 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
WebFX ships an update every 2 months, Notarized every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
