Ranked #4 on the daily ranking of Product Hunt, the world's largest product launch platform! ----- "Knowledge is built from multiple pieces of knowledge" is the concept behind this note-taking app. Each note consists of multiple text blocks, which can be individually copied or deleted. By adding links to other notes, you can refer to them while editing your current note. The main features are as follows: - Categorize notes with tags - Copy or delete individual text blocks within a note - Add links to other notes for reference - Text formatting using Markdown syntax (more options will be added) - note duplication (this allows for template-like usage) We hope that Linky Notes will help you organize your information more effectively in the future!
CarryOver

CarryOver turns the system Share Sheet into a simple bridge from quick discovery to focused follow-up. Useful things often appear when you are not ready to work on them: a post in a social app, a link in Safari, an article worth checking, or an idea from a chat. Share it to CarryOver on your iPhone, then come back later on iPad or Mac when you have more space to review, verify, and act. Save links, text, or images through the CarryOver share extension in apps that support the system Share menu. You can also add links, notes, and ideas manually. - Keep unfinished items in your inbox and move completed items to history - Search saved items - Set reminders that open the matching item - Favorite important items for later - See sync status and retry when needed Items are saved locally first. Cross-device sync requires the same Apple Account, iCloud enabled, and an internet connection. CarryOver saves what the source app shares. Web links open the original page rather than an offline full-text copy; internet access or a login may be needed.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Linky Notes at every 3 days against CarryOver's fortnightly. Linky Notes also leads on iOS requirement (13.4 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
