Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: GeezIME at none against Tigrinya Notes's shown. GeezIME also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 20 months). Tigrinya Notes's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 89%) and price ($3.99 vs $5.99). On ratings volume, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
