Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: NoteBoxd at none against Mindfuse's 1. NoteBoxd also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). Mindfuse's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 91%) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
