Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: NoteOnly at 100% against Translator's 58%. NoteOnly also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and in-app purchases (none vs 4). Translator's advantage is ratings volume (1.8K vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
