Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: KANDIS Gitter & RA at none against Notability's 10. KANDIS Gitter & RA also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). Notability's advantage is chart position (#113 vs unranked) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
