Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: tomTrace at none against Nested Folder Notes's 1. tomTrace also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks). Nested Folder Notes's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
