Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RainbowCalc at none against Note's 1. RainbowCalc also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months). Note's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
