Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Card Smart at none against Debt Note's 3. Card Smart also leads on update cadence (every 5 months vs every 15 months) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Debt Note's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
