We don’t use a notepad, but we check notifications. Meteor is for those who need a ‘VISIBLE’ small note, not big plans. Take notes in the notification center instead of a notepad. Then they’ll always be there. - Terms of use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Pixel QR at every 2 days against Meteor's weekly. Pixel QR also leads on iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
