Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Cubbily at 4.9 against DisplayNote App's 2.1. Cubbily also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 21). DisplayNote App's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 12) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
