HiMemo
Read full descriptionHide full description
For example, information that has a hierarchical structure, such as information linked to regions or division of organization, that is, information that has multiple children dangling from a parent and overlaps with grandchildren and grandchildren. Is unexpectedly large. Usually, such information is recorded in a memo application in bullet points, but adding and editing information is surprisingly troublesome, and there was a problem that the hierarchical relationship collapses if careless. With HiMemo, you can record information hierarchically with simple operations, and you can also add or modify. It is also possible to export to other apps and SNS in a tree view mode that gives a bird's eye view of the whole, or in plain text format or HTML format.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: HiMemo at Free against FloatNotes's $0.99. HiMemo also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). FloatNotes's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 19 months). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
