Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Notes, To at none against Note!'s shown. Notes, To also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 13 months) and review sentiment (82% vs 61%). Note!'s advantage is ratings volume (1K vs 108) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
