Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: WeNotes+ at 95% against BluLines's 22%. WeNotes+ also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (2.2K vs 316). BluLines's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
