Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: nxnote at free against ToMe's freemium. nxnote also leads on iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). ToMe's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 10 days) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
