Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Unforgetful at 4.7 against Noted Note's 4.0. Unforgetful also leads on ratings volume (248 vs 2) and review sentiment (70% vs 50%). Noted Note's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
