Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Paranotes at freemium against Recall's subscription. Paranotes also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks). Recall's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.
