Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Markdown File Reader at none against 简记's 1. Markdown File Reader also leads on ads (none vs shown) and device support (3 vs 1). 简记's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
