A long Apple Note should not turn into cropped pages, broken screenshot stitches, or a document with a missing ending. WholeNote turns one shared note into a searchable A4 PDF or one continuous image, ready to save, print, archive, or hand off. Share a note from Apple Notes, review the imported content, adjust its reading style, and export. WholeNote keeps the supported text, images, and detected tables in order, so you do not have to rebuild the note in another editor. • Export searchable PDF Create a fixed A4 document with automatic pagination and selectable, searchable text. • Save one continuous image Turn supported content into a single long PNG for quick viewing, saving to Photos, or sharing. If the note exceeds the safe image limit, WholeNote tells you to use PDF instead of removing content. • Keep mixed content in order Import supported text, images, and detected tables from the iOS Share Sheet and preserve their sequence. • Know when something is missing Import diagnostics and export checks surface unsupported content, size limits, and failures. WholeNote does not silently call an incomplete result successful. • Make long notes easier to read Choose a theme and adjust type size, line spacing, margins, and block spacing before export. • Buy once No subscription, no account, and no runtime paywall. Important: WholeNote can only process content that iOS provides through sharing and that the app supports. It does not batch-export your Notes library, preserve every Apple Notes formatting detail, expand every attachment, or export Word documents.

Sketudio is where your drawings start to move. Sketch a scene, bring it to life with motion and sound, add speech bubbles and your own voice, then share the whole story as a single file that plays in any web browser — no app required on the other end. Sketudio is a draw-first storytelling studio. You build your story one frame at a time, exactly the way you imagine it, and Sketudio turns those frames into a cinematic comic you can play and share. DRAW EVERY SCENE YOUR WAY - Sketch with pen and color tools, pick your frame shape (square, wide, or tall) - Drop in photos from your library as backgrounds - Cut out the subject from any photo you import — the background is removed on your device - Add captions and text labels with built-in text tools - Start in Simple mode, or switch to Advanced for canvas zoom, layered photos, and on-canvas text BRING IT TO LIFE WITH MAGIC - Add cinematic motion — zoom, pan, and playful spins - Layer in sound effects and screen flashes - Add speech, thought, shout, and narration bubbles - Record your own voice, or generate on-device English speech for any bubble MAKE IT INTERACTIVE - Turn a frame into a choice — show two buttons and let your reader pick which frame to jump to - Mark a frame as an ending so every branch of your story can finish its own way - Build branching, choose-your-own-adventure comics that play right in a browser PLAY IT TWO WAYS - Animated Comic: scene-by-scene autoplay with motion, flashes, sound, and bubble reveals - Comic: a vertical-scroll page where every scene is visible at once SHARE WITH ANYONE - Export to a single self-contained file that keeps your motion, timing, audio, and bubbles in one shareable story - The person you send it to just opens it in any browser. No account, no app, no sign-up - Keep every export in your Exports Library to replay, re-share, or reopen later - Back up or move a whole project as a single file — export it to JSON and re-import to pick up right where you left off PRIVATE BY DESIGN - Your comics, drawings, photos, and voice clips stay on your device - Works fully offline — create anywhere, no internet needed - No accounts, no ads, no tracking Whether you're sketching a quick gag strip or directing a multi-scene animated comic, Sketudio gives you the studio — you bring the story. Start with the built-in "How to Use Sketudio" walkthrough and make your first comic right away.
