Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: QuoteKeep at 5.0 against Noto's 4.6. QuoteKeep also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 4 weeks). Noto's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
