Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Cloud Notes at Free against CloudDeck's $1.99. Cloud Notes also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (18 vs 26.2). CloudDeck's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
