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.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: WholeNote at 100% against Edit Text In Photo's 50%. WholeNote also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ads (none vs shown). Edit Text In Photo's advantage is price (Free vs $3.99) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). On device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Edit Text In Photo holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Edit Text In Photo has 12 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of WholeNote's written reviews are positive against 50% of Edit Text In Photo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

WholeNote ships an update every 3 months, Edit Text In Photo every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 31, 2026.
