Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SimpNote at 4.4 against 简谱作曲家's 3.7. SimpNote also leads on ratings volume (74 vs 3) and review sentiment (72% vs 64%). 简谱作曲家's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SimpNote sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and 简谱作曲家 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
SimpNote holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SimpNote has 74 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 72% of SimpNote's written reviews are positive against 64% of 简谱作曲家's.
SimpNote ships an update every 6 weeks, 简谱作曲家 every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
