Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Abide at none against WristDeck Voice Notes's 2. Abide also leads on ratings volume (17K vs 1) and chart position (#84 vs unranked). WristDeck Voice Notes's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). On price, rating, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
