markru vs Foldly

Markdown notes are easy to write — and easy to forget. markru is built for what comes after writing: shelving, binding, and rereading your own notes like books. (Some features — tag suggestions, summaries — use Apple Intelligence on supported devices.) YOUR NOTES, SHELVED LIKE BOOKS Promote finished notes from drafts to your bookshelf. Browse by shelf, search, and sort by what you read last. BIND NOTES INTO ONE READABLE BOOK Combine related pages into one book. Reorder pages, add new ones, and read them as a single piece — or unbind anytime. WRITE IN CLEAN MARKDOWN A focused editor with live preview and a formatting bar for headings, lists, checklists, tables, code, and more. Some writing helpers — tag suggestions, formatting, and summaries — are partly powered by Apple Intelligence, right on your device. Note: These AI-assisted features require a supported device and OS version. Where Apple Intelligence isn't available, they simply fall back to manual entry — everything else in the app still works, and no note content is ever sent to an external server. CAPTURE IDEAS IN SECONDS Quick Capture works like a paper memo: jot it down, the title can come later. Import .md and .txt files, or send text from any app with the share sheet. KEEP YOUR SHELVES IN ORDER See your note, shelf, and book counts at a glance. Clean up, compress, or bind notes as your library grows. PICK UP RIGHT WHERE YOU LEFT OFF markru remembers your reading progress in every book, so returning to your notes feels like reopening one. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account required. Your notes live as plain Markdown files on your device or in iCloud Documents — never on our servers. Write lightly. Reread deeply.

Want to print a PDF as a folded booklet — a zine, a program, a short manual or a story for the kids? Foldly reorders and pairs the pages in saddle-stitch order, so you just print double-sided, fold down the middle and staple. Pick a PDF, check the sheet-by-sheet preview, and tap Make Booklet. Share the result or save it to Files, then print it from any app. • SADDLE-STITCH PAGE ORDER — two pages per landscape sheet side, arranged so that after printing, stacking and one center fold the pages read 1, 2, 3 … in order. • BLANKS HANDLED FOR YOU — booklets need a multiple of 4 pages; Foldly adds the blank pages at the end and tells you how many, and how many sheets of paper you need. • SHEET-BY-SHEET PREVIEW — see which pages land on the front and back of every sheet before you print. • STAYS SHARP — pages are placed as vectors, not screenshots, so text prints crisp. Each page is kept upright, scaled to fit its half and trimmed to its visible page area. Links and bookmarks are carried over where possible. • BATCH MODE — with the unlock, turn up to 50 PDFs into booklets in one go. • SAME PAPER AS YOUR PDF — the booklet uses your document's page size turned sideways, so a Letter or A4 PDF prints on Letter or A4 paper, each page shrunk to half size. How to print: choose double-sided printing and flip on the short edge. If your printer can't print double-sided, Foldly can't do that part for you. Limits: PDFs up to 200 pages and 80 MB. Everything happens on your iPhone — your PDF is never uploaded and no account is needed. Your first booklet is free. A one-time $4.99 purchase unlocks unlimited booklets and batch mode.
