Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Notes Me at every 11 days against PDF Compressor's every 3 months. PDF Compressor's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. PDF Compressor sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Notes Me sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for PDF Compressor against 5.0 for Notes Me. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PDF Compressor has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
PDF Compressor ships an update every 3 months, Notes Me every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
