Check the devices included in the tier
MarginNote’s official App Store comparison lists Pro for iPhone and iPad, while Max also includes Mac. If you use Windows or Android, adding Mac coverage still does not answer your platform question. Treat your device list as a requirement, not an afterthought.
Compare the purchase terms, not just the headline
Before paying, check the billing period, renewal rules and current regional store price. Distinguish a one-time license from a renewing subscription, and check the conditions of any additional services you need. Use the official purchase page for the final terms.
Choose around the reading routine you will keep
Write down the tools you use each week: reading, excerpts, your own notes, source links and mind maps. Then compare those needs against each plan. If keeping books together across different operating systems matters most, evaluate an account-based workflow alongside the tier comparison.
From a passage to an idea
Select text or capture a region, add your own thoughts, and organize related excerpts into a mind map. Return to the source when you need context. Nodes are not limited by your plan.
One account. Your whole bookshelf.
Keep your books, excerpts, notes and mind maps together in your MindNote account. Continue across Mac, iPhone, iPad, Android phones and tablets, and Windows. Choose which books to download to each device.
