Zeddy
Read full descriptionHide full description
Zeddy is a notes app for people who work away from a desk. Talk, and it writes the note for you β not a raw transcript, but a tidied note with a title, sorted into whatever fields you use. Ramble, backtrack, read a model number off a nameplate. It sorts it out. Photograph a handwritten page and Zeddy reads it into a note. Photograph a sketch and it redraws it cleanly. Any note can be reshaped afterwards. A quick note becomes a meeting note, a field call, or a shopping list without retyping anything β it re-reads what you actually said, so nothing degrades along the way. WHAT'S FREE Unlimited text notes. Tags, search, reminders, pinning, trash, export, and sync across your phone and the web. No ads. WHAT'S IN ZEDDY PRO Voice dictation, note reshaping, reading handwriting, and sketch digitizing. Free for 14 days. ALSO IN ZEDDY β’ Works offline β notes sync when you're back in range β’ Place reminders: get a note when you arrive somewhere β’ Attach photos to any note β’ Use it in a browser at zeddynotes.com β’ Export everything, any time, in a format you can read Zeddy is not funded by advertising.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Zeddy at none against Sova's 2. Zeddy also leads on iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). Sova's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
