Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Character Memo at Free against eBook Maker Pro's $0.99. Character Memo also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 weeks). eBook Maker Pro's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and device support (3 vs 1). On in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
