Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: NoteSurf at every 2 days against LaundryCat's every 3 months. NoteSurf also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). LaundryCat's advantage is ratings volume (4.6K vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
