Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Sikh Notes at none against Katha Manji Sahib's shown. Sikh Notes also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 7 months) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Katha Manji Sahib's advantage is ratings volume (14 vs 2). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
