Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Astrysk at Free against Memo Widget's $4.00. Astrysk also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). Memo Widget's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 3.0) and in-app purchases (none vs 4). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
