Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Notan at 93% against AusweisApp Bund's 34%. Notan also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). AusweisApp Bund's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 56). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
