Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ntfy at none against MyEchoRecall's 1. ntfy also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (491 vs 1). MyEchoRecall's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
