Scritch. Your notes don't have to be perfect from the start. Begin by jotting down whatever comes to mind, and take it all the way with Scritch. Even a quick jot has its details. Writing · Ink shows up the moment your pen touches down, like on paper · Lines respond to pressure and tilt, and the fountain pen pools a little where you pause · Hold your pen at the end of a stroke to get a straight line, or a clean circle, rectangle or triangle · Scribble over something with the pen you're holding to erase it. No need to switch to the eraser · Tidy straightens wobbly handwriting and evens out its size and spacing · Drag a color into a closed shape to fill it · The highlighter sits behind the text, so words stay crisp, even on PDFs · Double-tap or squeeze Apple Pencil to switch tools Studying · Write directly on PDF textbooks. Even hundreds of pages stay light, and you can bring in just the pages you need · Bring in other documents as notes and write on them too · Cover tape hides what you're memorizing. Tap it to check yourself · If you'd rather not flip pages, write in one long page that scrolls down · 23 paper types, including Cornell, vocabulary, planner, manuscript grid, music staff, four-line and kanji practice · Layers keep your writing and drawings apart, and each one has its own opacity · Connect a TV or monitor and it shows just the page, nice and big. There's a laser pointer for classes and talks, too Sticking and decorating · Put photos, stickers, text and sticky notes anywhere on the page · Lasso things to move, rotate or copy them · Run out of room? Switch to an infinite canvas · Give each notebook the cover color and texture you like Sort loosely, find fast · Folders inside folders, favorites, and long-press to drag things where you want them · Browse by cover, or by each note's first page as you wrote it · Dark mode that's easy on the eyes at night And peace of mind · No ads. Who wants ads while they're jotting? · Every feature works without an account · Notes are saved on your device. If you want, pick up where you left off on another device through your own Google Drive · If a save ever fails, you'll know right away, and snapshots let you go back to an earlier version Whenever you feel like jotting, just Scritch.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Scritch at none against Jamtudy's 1. Scritch also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Jamtudy's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 5 days). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
