Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Lessonotes at 4.0 against SchoolTry's 3.0. Lessonotes also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (14 vs 16.0). SchoolTry's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.
