Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: PDF Converter at freemium against Notebook's subscription. Notebook's advantage is rating (4.1 vs 3.6) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PDF Converter sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Notebook sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Notebook holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 18 and 16 respectively.
PDF Converter ships an update every 6 weeks, Notebook every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
