Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Voice Recorder at 5.0 against Note's 2.3. Voice Recorder also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 4 months). Note's advantage is ratings volume (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 16.4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
