# Notevision vs MyEarTraining

The clearest difference is ads: Notevision at none against MyEarTraining's shown. Notevision also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (3.2K vs 252). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Notevision sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and MyEarTraining sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Notevision against 4.8 for MyEarTraining. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Notevision has 3.2K ratings behind it against 252, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 89% of Notevision's written reviews are positive against 93% of MyEarTraining's.

Notevision ships an update weekly, MyEarTraining every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on September 22, 2026.
