Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Chord Sheet Creator at none against NoteReader's 1. Chord Sheet Creator also leads on ads (none vs shown). NoteReader's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 5 days). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
